1989; Revised 1999 Photo Caption: On the eastern
slopes of the Rocky Mountains, the Nathaniel K. Boswell Ranch reflects
the 100-year evolution of a typical Wyoming livestick ranch. Hay
was grown on the bottomland along the Laranie River, while cattle
and other livestock grazed on hillsides of sage and grass. The headquarters,
consisting of a house, barns, bunkhouses, sheds, privies, fences,
pens, and corrals, reflects the central operations of the ranch
and is also a distinctive collection of late 19th century log construction.
