The Lord Ranch is rich in history. The history behind this ranch runs deep of stories told and some never spoken of. In Charlie Russell’s book, Trails Plowed Under – Stories of the Old West, he wrote about his time on the Lord Ranch, riding the range and eventually came to a stop at Cannonball Coulee with his buddy Charlie Brewster. Buffalo jumps overlook the riverfront acres, teepee rings are authentic and still seen from the benches on the south range, Lewis and Clark traveled this very property. It is rumored that while Lewis and Clark were traveling through, they drank the water from a spring near the intersection of the Smith and Missouri rivers and got sick with dysentery. They shot a deer across the river and their trusty dog drug it back for them to eat. This ranch has been in the family since 1962 and is what the west was made of, filled with fascinating heritage of the west.
