The Campstool Kid

Our legacy starts in Austin Texas where we gathered longhorn cattle and brought them north to the “Dakota Territory” before Wyoming was a state. 8 generations ago Jesse Lincoln built the Driskill Hotel in Austin, Texas. He came north looking for open range for livestock. He found the perfect place in northeast Wyoming and it was called the D Ranch. In 1886 there was a massive series of blizzards. Out of the 27,600 cattle that were on winter range, they gathered only 2,500 head. This death loss caused them to lose the hotel in Texas only one year after building was completed. Around the turn of the century we bought the Campstool Ranch, which is where we are ranching now. In the shadow of Devils Tower National Monument. We strive to create a sustainable environment for production agriculture and wildlife to thrive and coexist for generations to come! Our videos will take you through day to day ranching activities with the Campstool Kid!
