Movies
and
Visitors at
Rafter Six Ranch
|
In
the 1940s a location scout for Walt Disney Pictures
discovered Rafter Six Ranch, and thus began
the long association between the Ranch and the
entertainment industry. Walt Disney visited
Rafter Six Ranch , and was so taken with the
stunning scenery, that soon a steady stream
of Disney Productions were using the Ranch.
A cabin was specially built for Walt Disney
- and still carries his name.
River
of No Return, was Marilyn Monroe's first
movie, and many of the scenes were shot on and
around the ranch.

Six Ranch has
been the backdrop for many wilderness themed Movies and
TV Shows. Productions like, Grizzly Adams, Wilderness
Family, Wolf Boy, and Across the Great Divide
(Stan Cowley's movie debut!) have all been shot at the
Resort. During the filming of Blood River, with
Wilford Brimley and Rick Schroeder, Mister Schroeder met
his future bride.
In
1994 the TV Movie, How the West Was Fun, using
Rafter Six Ranch 's name, starred Mary-Kate and Ashley
Olsen and was filmed on location.
Television Commercials, Music Videos,
and Advertising Agencies also take
advantage of our unique brand of rustic luxury, and stunning
scenery. All things being equal, yer just never know who
or what you'll see at the ranch, on any given day in the
beautiful Canadian Rockies!
