In 1991 they restored it as authentically as possible using reference from publications such as Time Life Book, and from the classic John Wayne movie “The Cowboys”. They gathered wagon parts from Oregon, Nevada and Idaho. The 9-0 Ranch is a traditional working ranch with mother cows and calves. Johnny and Trudy Morris own and operate the ranch which is nestled in Middle Valley (Midvale) surrounded by Hitt, Cuddy, Indian and West Mountains in west-central Idaho.
