Carter's life began amid the tumultuous shadows of neglect and loss, thrust into the gritty world of Yellowstone Ranch. As a troubled teenager, he emerged from the dark alleys of his youth, haunted by the ghosts of an abusive father and a life defined by harsh realities. The fate that swept him into the arms of Beth Dutton, sketched against the sterile ambiance of a hospital, marked the tipping point of his journey.

With her fierce demeanor and unyielding strength, Beth saw something worth saving—a flicker of resilience in Carter's otherwise scattered spirit. As he found his place amidst the sprawling decay and beauty of the Dutton Ranch, Carter discovered an unexpected sense of belonging, wrestling with the weighty shadows of his turbulent past while yearning to adapt and prove himself. Under Rip Wheeler's watchful yet skeptical eye, Carter navigated the complexities of filial bonds, oscillating between rebellious impulses and a burgeoning sense of responsibility.

Throughout his journey, punctuated by a sudden growth spurt that transformed him physically, both viewers and the inhabitants of Yellowstone witnessed a young boy evolving towards manhood, embodying hope and lost potential. In the relentless embrace of Montana's wilderness, Carter's transformation serves as a poignant symbol of resilience, futures shaped by love, and the ongoing quest for identity amidst chaos.
