Two Heart Ranch

Located in the heart of Western Colorado, we have been a family owned ranch since 1962. In the early days the family ranch, which ran brands of "Cross Bar Cross" and "Lazy TM", consisted of over 9,000 deeded acres and ran over 1,400 head of Hereford cows from the Uncompahgre Plateau to the Grand Mesa.

We have been busy at the ranch planting trees this spring! With lots of help we have planted 23 trees of all kinds so far, with plans to do several more as we focus on different areas of landscaping. The area where we have been planting is smack dab in the middle of where corrals and livestock pens were located for over 70 years. While digging holes for the trees we found lots of interesting "artifacts" Several horse shoes, lots of baling wire, and even half of a pair of shears that were probably used to trim cows ears so that their tag number could be easily read. We look forward to these trees growing tall and adding shade and atmosphere to Two Heart Ranch for the coming years!

The red barn in the 1940's. This view is from Kannah Creek road looking south east across the hay fields. In this photograph the barn is still sporting the main ranch brand, cross bar cross. The ranch was home to over 1400 mama cows during the winter. Notice the piles of loose hay on the left (east) side of the barn. Those hay stacks measure over 40 ft tall! It takes a LOT of hay to get over a thousand cows through a winter. At the time this photo was taken, only two homes had been built on the ranch, both of them by the original homesteaders, the Ternahan family.
