After the end of the open range, land became closed range. When land was open range, cows and sheep could wander anywhere. They would go down the road and graze wherever they pleased. If you did not want someone else's cows grazing in your pasture, it was your job to fence it in. Generally, it meant your cows were free to wander from a pasture down the road back in the road to your barn. When open range ended, you had to provide a gate on one side of the road and a gate on your side of the road. The cattle could cross the road but they could not wander along the road. You had to provide the path on your property for the cows.

What was the open range and what brought about the end of the open range?
The open range was a system of unconfined land in the American West where cattle grazed freely without the constraints of fences, allowing ranchers to expand their herds and access vast grazing areas. The end of the open range was primarily brought about by the introduction of barbed wire in the 1870s, which enabled ranchers to enclose their land, coupled with the overgrazing of pastures and the harsh winter of 1886-1887 that decimated cattle populations. These factors, along with increased agricultural development and land claims, transformed the landscape and led to the decline of the open range era.
