Where the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains meet the plains



History

The Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch, located along the breathtaking Rocky Mountain Front in Montana, serves as both a tribute to Theodore Roosevelt’s conservation legacy and a hub for wildlife research, education, and stewardship. Established by the Boone and Crockett Club in 1986, the ranch is named in honor of Roosevelt, who was not only a co-founder of the club but also a pivotal figure in the American conservation movement. This historic ranch embodies his vision of balancing sustainable land use with the preservation of wildlife and natural ecosystems.

The Boone and Crockett Club, founded in 1887 by Roosevelt and like-minded conservationists, was instrumental in shaping policies to protect America’s natural resources. At a time when wildlife populations were being decimated by overhunting and habitat destruction, the club advocated for ethical hunting practices, the establishment of wildlife refuges, and the scientific management of game species. The Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch represents the culmination of these efforts, providing a living laboratory where conservation principles are put into practice.
