Life on the Ranch
Head outside to the 1880 High Desert Homestead Ranch. Have a chat with Mrs. Blair and help her with the daily chores at the Blair family cabin. Meet the Blair family, hired hands and friends. Learn the many ways in which the pioneers of the High Desert made a living from the challenging landscape. With the demands of ranch living in 1880 in the remote region east of the Cascades the Blairs need all the help they can get. Lend a hand at churning butter, splitting wood, tending the 1880 garden, and try your hand at Placer mining.
Check with the admissions with scheduled program times upon
arrival.
But don't stop there! Head up the slope beyond the ranch and see the past as it roars to life once more!
