In the early days, hay was often cut with hand scythes, pitchforked
onto a wagon and then stacked in a barn. This was common in wetter parts
of the country, but in the arid West, ranchers learned that the hay did
not need to be covered. Ten inches of annual precipitation, including
melted snowfall, wasn't enough to cause hay to mold.
