Located North of Ramah and east of Kiowa in Elbert County in the high plains region was long used by Native tribes (Kiowa, Arapaho, Cheyenne, Comanche, Ute) for hunting and forage in the 1800s. The area explored by John C. Fremont (1843); was part of Louisiana Purchase (1803). The Smoky Hill Trail stage stops emerged mid-1800s; Kiowa was settled in 1859 as the “Middle Kiowa” stage stop on Butterfield Overland Dispatch. Elbert County was formed February 1874 from Douglas County portions and was named for Territorial Governor Samuel H. Elbert and Kiowa became county seat. The Homestead Act (1862) drew settlers for ranches, logging, sawmills; ranching (cattle, sheep) and dominated the economy. Railroads arrived in the 1880s and boosted settlement, but later declined. Today it has a quiet agricultural legacy with enduring ranching heritage. Jumping Cow Ranch is the former home of famous western artist TD Kelsey and was formerly the headquarters of Jumping Cow Gelbvieh Ranch. Located 17 miles east of Kiowa Colorado and 15 miles north of Ramah, Colorado. For shopping, it is 24 miles to Elizabeth and 32 miles from Limon. Located within an hour of Denver Tech Center and 1 hour 20 minutes to Denver International Airport and about 1 hour 20 minutes to Colorado Springs. The ranch is conveniently located to take advantage of all that Colorado has to offer whether mountains, plains or cities.
