It was developed in 1951 by M. McCaughley, a Scot who first explored the mountain ranges in 1949 . He camped on the mountaintop of the Oshie Ridge on the Sankwala Mountains for a month before returning with Mr. Hugh Jones a fellow rancher in 1951 . Together with Dr Crawfeild, they developed the Obudu Cattle Ranch .
