Nice place, seems like people care and are using the science of the times to make decisions (both obvious and not so obvious)

Phoned BLM office in Hines Oregon on 7-25-17 and asked if Riddle Bros. Ranch road was open. Operator stated she did not know but would put me in touch with someone who did know.

I was advised that the Ranch road was closed on Monday and Tuesday of each week. I was advised that a well drilling truck was in at the ranch and probably would be out by Tuesday. So we made the trip on Wed of the week. We got there and the gate was closed and we could see that the probable reason was because of a rain shower the night before and the unimproved road was muddy even for our 4x4 .

All I can say is that someone in the main office ought to get there information together before telling the public what maybe or may not be the facts.

We made a day of it and took the loop road and saw over 40 wild mustangs. Maybe the next time for the Riddle Brothers Ranch from Roseburg Oregon.
