The E.P. Ranch was a ranch and royal residence in Pekisko, Alberta that was owned from 1919 to 1962 by Edward VIII. In 1919, Edward, who was then the Prince of Wales, made a royal tour of Canada and purchased the ranch during his visit. The purchase was executed by George Lane, who owned the adjacent Bar U Ranch. In 1962, by this time retitled the Duke of Windsor, he sold the ranch to Jim Cartwright of the D Ranch.
