Willow Corral at Quinn River Ranch

Nearly every ranch in this country has a willow corral such as this one at Quinn River Crossing Ranch. Miller & Lux had willows along the Quinn River cut to build their corral sometime after the turn of the century. We do know that a neighbor of ours, Harold Woodward, worked for Quinn River in 1921 and the corrals were old at that time. Most ranches still use the corrals for working cattle and sheep.
