Our area is rich in geologic and western history. Neighboring us is Toadstool National Park. Over the hills just 4 miles due west is the Hudson/Meng Bison Bone Bed. Agate Fossil Bed is a 45 minute drive away as is the Mammoth Museum. The Fur Trade Museum and Fort Robinson State Park are excellent places to learn about our western history and the settling of this land.
Our ranch was homesteaded through this era by my ancestors and we would love to share our stories with you as to enrich your experience with this part of our history. Aspects of ranch life are much the same as they were years ago. I must say we have it much easier now.
Scottsbluff and Chimney Rock National Monument are an hour and 15 minutes away. Mt Rushmore and Rapid City are 2 hours away. Join us and be central to all these wonderful experiences!
Near us at Chadron are the following attractions. Chadron Fur Trade Museum,
Western author, Marie Sandoz Musem, Dawes County Museum and Chadron State College.
If you go to Crawford make sure you visit our Antique stores, fine restaurants and History Museum. At Fort Robinson see the beautiful buildings covering 47 years of military history starting in 1868. Two fine museums are housed there, one dealing with the Fort and area history, the other Trailside Museum houses a World Class find of 2 Columbian Mammoths found interlocked just 6 miles from our ranch. Many other precious fossils are contained in that museum explaining our rich geologic history. Agate Fossil Beds just an hour south continues with relating history of the western Indian and fossil remains.
