Rial Chew Ranch Complex, Historic ranch complex in Dinosaur National Monument, Moffat County, Colorado.

The ranch complex includes a main house, cabin, root cellar, corrals, and multiple storage buildings spread across the agricultural property.

The Chew family established and operated this ranch from 1900 to 1949, continuing their presence until the early 1970s through special permits.

The structures and layout demonstrate the agricultural practices and ranching methods employed in northwestern Colorado during the early 20th century.

Visitors can access the ranch complex through US Highway 40 in Dinosaur, Colorado, with designated parking areas for exploration.

The ranch utilized Pool Creek's resources, enabling three generations of the Chew family to maintain orchards, gardens, and irrigation systems.
