“James Whittaker’s family has been here since 1915, when his grandfather carved out a ranch in this wilderness. As a teenager, James’ father, Floyd, ran a twenty-mile trap line for beaver, bobcats, and coyotes high in the mountains above the ranch. He used the money he made from selling pelts to buy more land and continued to buy property before and after the Great Depression. Each purchase enhanced the ability of the next generation to continue to live and ranch in this Lemhi Valley.”
– Jim Keen, Great Ranches of the West Author & Photographer
