Thomson Ranch
Thompson Ranch was established in 1903 when Thomas and Blanche Thompson purchased the land from Henry Brown, who originally homesteaded the area in 1891.
The ranch features a horse and cow barn dating back to the 1910’s and 1940’s. The cow barn provided storage and cover for ranching activities that once provided milk to the town of Alberton.
The ranch underwent a logging operation in 2011 under the Forest Stewardship Incentive Program (SIP), and was again tended to by a professional forester in 2020 to maintain the health and beauty of the wooded land. Upper portions of the ranch are at an elevation of 4,400 feet. Wildlife abounds, including elk, deer, bear, coyote, fox and many woodland birds.
