winter pastures
Snowy livestock fields
Winter pastures are grazing lands used during cold months, typically at lower elevations where snow cover is lighter and forage remains accessible.
In pastoral and ranching traditions, livestock move seasonally between summer and winter pastures—a practice called transhumance.
The shepherds brought their flocks down to the winter pastures in November.
