Theodore Roosevelt National Park - Ranch Unit

The most remote unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park is the Ranch Unit, where Roosevelt had owned and operated a cattle ranch as a young man.  The road is many miles of dirt road which turned out be in great shape the day we visited.



Views from the site where the ranch house once stood.




The only thing to mark where the house had been were a few large, flat foundation stones.



After leaving the Ranch Unit, we stopped along the road to have some lunch.



At our lunch spot, we had a closeup view of a round hay bale ...



.. and some roadside wildflowers.
