Ranching Heritage - text

Located on the historic Rogler Ranch just north of Matfield Green, the Pioneer Bluffs Center for Flint Hills Ranching Heritage invites ranchers, locals, schools, and visitors seeking a Flint Hills experience to come along with us as we journey through time to explore our history, and join us as we examine contemporary ranching issues.

Doe and fawn wading in creek waters

Fawn Season at Pioneer Bluffs
May – June wildlife camera video compilation – The surge of spring rain coursing through Crocker Creek and the fresh green foliage create a beautiful backdrop for glimpses of wildlife in the natural area at Pioneer Bluffs. In addition to the deer you will see bobcat, coyotes, a pair(!) of beaver, blue heron and more. Fawns walking with the mother doe and also bedding down in the glade appear throughout the video.
