The Dutton ranch is alive and well — even without its patriarch.

Production on the final batch of episodes of Yellowstone began in Montana on May 20,

and while Kevin Costner, who has played John Dutton on the Paramount series since its premiere,

confirmed he won’t be returning, the rest of the cast is happy to be back on familiar turf. On May 23, Cole Hauser, who plays Rip Wheeler, kicked off the cast’s posts about the new season as he shared a gorgeous photo of a rainbow over a mountain range and reflected on being back in Montana for the show.

“Good morning #montana I’ve missed ya old friend! If you are going to rise, you might as well shine,” Hauser, 49, wrote in the caption.

Ryan Bingham, who plays Walker, a ranch hand on the Dutton property, has also posted several photos and videos since production on the final half of season 5 began.

On June 17, he posted a video driving through rural roads, writing in the caption, “Snow is falling in June. @yellowstone #Montana.”

He also shared a selfie with costar Jen Landon — which she also posted — as they posed in the back seat of a truck with Jake Ream.

“Back on the Stone,” Bingham, 43, captioned the selfie, while Landon, 40, captioned it, “Summer Roadtrip ✨ .”

Landon also shared a promo clip announcing the premiere date of the final episodes – Sunday, November 10 — and wrote alongside the video, “See you November 10th, baby. Let’s get to work. 🔥🐎🤘.”

Ian Bohen, who plays ranch hand Ryan on the series, posted the clip announcing the premiere date, writing alongside it, “Clear your calendar. Grab your tissues. Send the youngins off to your sisters house. It’s gonna get real western around here.”

In an earlier post from June 14, he gave fans a look at some of the tricks they can expect from Yellowstone’s final installment, as he expertly maneuvered a horse. “That flag ain’t got no chance cause I got dancin’ boots when I’m on the ranch now check out this steed and boy watch him prance,” he captioned the video.

In April, prior to the announcement that production had begun on season 5 and before Costner had confirmed he wouldn’t return, Hauser told PEOPLE he was “excited to go back to work” after an extended hiatus from filming.

“It’s been a year and a half. I’m excited to see my castmates,” Hauser said.

Hauser admitted he was particularly “excited” to see Kelly Riley, who plays his wife, Beth Dutton, “and work with her” again, noting that he was eager to “just get back up in Montana and go to work.”
