Title, date and keywords based on information provided by the photographer

The Ladder name derives from neither the set of climbing rungs nor a family member of that name, but from the ranch's "lazy ladder" brand: the Roman numeral III laid on its side, which somewhat resembles a short ladder. The ranch, which traces to a simple, 160-acre plot homesteaded in 1864, must deal with different rules, regulations, and taxing structures of the two Rocky Mountain states that it bestrides.
