See Circle Creek Rock House, City of Rocks National Reserve, Idaho

The Tracy Homestead ruins stand as the last remnant of the last ranch and homestead inside the City of Rocks National Reserve.  Between 1910 and 1919 there were 29 land patents filed within the area that would later become City of Rocks National Reserve. Nineteen of these were dry land farms; however, due to poor soil and water availability these farms were abandoned by the 1920s. Later these areas were used primarily as rangeland for cattle and sheep. To this day, ranchers use land surrounding the Reserve for grazing cattle.
