Explore TR’s time as a rancher and cowboy in the North Dakota Badlands and how that experience shaped his view of conservation, reclamation and the history of the American West. Through his writings, Roosevelt, along with Frederick Remington and Buffalo Bill Cody, became one of the shapers of the nation’s collective view of the West. We will also look at TR in South Dakota: his friendship with Seth Bullock, his acts of land preservation and his place on Mount Rushmore.
