Ranching was much different in the early 1900s than it is today. There were few motor vehicles and fewer roads to drive them on; consequently herding and tending cattle often meant spending weeks or even months away from home. For many, the range was home, and they often tried to establish semi-permanent camps where they could rest and cook their food nearer their work. The Cave Spring was one of these camps; the Lost Canyon Camp was another. It appears that little has changed in the Lost Canyon camp for many decades. The old grub box where the old-timers once stored their food is still there, and there is even a small table nearby as well as many old cans, bottles, boxes, and pieces of Dutch ovens and other cooking implements.
