CypressView Ranch
CVL/D&R Ranch is located just north of the Canada/USA border. It is the one part of CVL/D&R's holdings where you can have a view of mountains.
To the south, across the Canada/US border in Montana are the beautiful Bear Paw Mountains. CVL/D&R have concluded negotiations with the Nature Conservancy of Canada to establish, in conjunction with Environment and Climate Canada, an easement on this ranch. This easement will contribute to maintaining the natural and native flora and fauna native to the Milk River Basin Natural Area.
In the summer CypressView Ranch is home for about 300 cows and calves that are managed with Marvin and Daniel Gardner.

Such a special occasion and honour for Rubiela and I to host the national executive board team and staff from the Canadian Wildlife Federation in our home at CypressView! Great presentations and discussion. We traveled to Old Man on his back and were hosted there by the Nature Conservancy of Canada team and observed the bison and other wildlife there. We ended the day in the beautiful Cypress Hills for dinner. It was very special that Sean Southey our CEO and David Pezderic, chairperson of our national board could join us.
