Dallam County, the Last of the XIT

Until this trip all I knew about the XIT Ranch was that at one time it had
XIT Ranch Museum
been the largest spread in Texas. I didn’t know that two men got all of the land by supplying the stone for and building of the state capitol, nor did I know that there were so many little towns that originated as business centers for the ranch. There’s lots more to learn, and not just about ranching in Texas.
