My parents use to go into the mountains outside Musquiz to work on some ranches. Dad was in the water pump/irrigation business. They used to talk about the scenery. They would go to el Rancho Fortin and a couple of others that had large buffalo herds. Is this in the same area?
Your folks, use to go one of the biggest ranches in the area. El Fortin Ranch was owned by
Maximo & Joan Michaelis they were both from the U.S.. They set up a nice ranching operation, until they past away, then their son sold the ranch. The new owner, Jose Maria Ramon made some renovations to the Hacienda house, added more Buffalo's (Cibolos) and more solar panels. He has a nice set up.
It is more like a corporate retrieve, now adays.
Check the Photo album on
El Fortin Ranch that one of the members of my club did on a visit there. There are 96 very good photos to enjoy.
