About this trail
Maud Noble came to the valley as a dude rancher at the Bar BC Ranch summer of 1915. She moved to the valley permanently in 1916 and contracted a cabin on the east side of Cottonwood Creek. She purchased the Menor homestead in 1918 and had her cabin moved to the homestead. With her partner Frederick Sandell, she ferried increasing numbers of visitors across the Snake River and ran the Ferry Ranch Store. In 1923, a group of local residents and Horace Albright, Superintendent of Yellowstone National Park, met at Noble's cabin to discuss their concerns over commercial development along the base of the Teton Range. The alarmed meeting participants discussed ways to save the valley from tawdry exploitation. They agreed that some sort of preserve would be necessary to protect the "Old West" character of the valley, though their concept of a preserve was different from a national park. The group decided to seek a wealthy individual who would be willing to buy private land to donate to the preserve -- that person was John D. Rockefeller, Jr. In 1927, a steel truss bridge was built just south of the ferry, making it obsolete. Maud Noble sold the property to the Snake River Land Company in 1929.
