RANCH HISTORY<br />
The <strong>Ranch</strong> was founded in the 1800s by J.J. Galbreath, a horse trader who married a Blackfeet woman. He aggregated lands and allotments eventually<br />
forming an 18,000 acre ranch. The Galbreath <strong>Ranch</strong> initially raised horses for the US Army Remount Program at Fort Shaw, Montana, and later for<br />
the Canadian <strong>North</strong>west Mounted Police at Lethbridge, Alberta. In the 1920s it was converted to a cattle ranch and has remained one ever since, with<br />
the exception of a brief period of time in the 1990s when the <strong>Ranch</strong> was used for breeding and training polo ponies.<br />
