BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - The U.S. Forest Service has completed the purchase of an historic Badlands ranch in a $5.3 million deal, the federal Agriculture Department said Monday.
The 5,200-acre ranch in western North Dakota is next to Theodore Roosevelt's Elkhorn Ranch site, where the former president ranched more than a century ago.
The deal was completed April 25, the 60th anniversary of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, said Valerie Naylor, the park superintendent.
