Crail Ranch Buildings, Ranch buildings in Gallatin County, Montana.
The Crail Ranch Buildings consist of two log cabins, including a two-story main residence with hand-hewn logs and visible axe marks on dove-tailed connections.
Augustus Frank Crail established the ranch in 1902 by purchasing three homesteads, school lands, and railroad property, forming a 960-acre agricultural operation.
The Crail Ranch Homestead Museum displays objects, photographs, and documents from the homestead era, spanning from 1896 to 1970 in Big Sky.
Visitors can find the historic ranch buildings at 2110 Spotted Elk Road in Big Sky, where they stand as preserved examples of early Montana homesteading.
Frank Crail developed a specific wheat variety named Crail Fife, which received recognition at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis.
