Carbon County - Lot 72, Medicine Bow, WY
This beautiful 120-plus acre ranchette is located within the Cassidy River Ranch. Rich in history, numerous dinosaur bones, historic teepee rings as well as buffalo bones have been discovered on the Cassidy River Ranch. The Plains Indians called this area good medicine for the available material needed for bows and arrows, as well as an abundant game for hunting. In later years, Butch Cassidy robbed the Overland Pacific Flyer, which was later immortalized in the Hollywood classic "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." The actual train robbery took place at the Wilcox station next to the ranch. Many claimed that Butch Cassidy made his escape by hiding along the river banks of the Little Medicine Bow River. It boasts wide-open spaces, big skies, mountain range views, and plenty of room to stretch out. Pronghorn and mule deer roam these lands, red-tailed hawks, bald eagles and golden eagles soar over the expansive mountainous plains.

This 120-acre parcel is situated at an elevation of approximately 6700 feet on a level of rolling open native grassland, overlooking several mountain ranges with magnificently vast views.

Carbon County - Rawlins, WY
92,000 total acres, including approximately 25,000 deeded acres
Several miles of the legendary North Platte River
Low overhead ranch with excellent annual income potential
Trophy elk, mule deer, antelope, upland birds, & waterfowl
Outstanding cattle ranch with fishing, hunting, & investment opportunities
Several miles of the fabled North Platte River grace the southern end of the Haystack River Ranch, just outside of Rawlins, Wyoming. A legendary history of native Americans, fur trappers, railroaders, and outlaws enliven the legacy of this part of Wyoming, and Haystack River Ranch lies in the middle of it all. With over 92,000 acres controlled in a combination of deeded and leased land, this vast property is a proven low overhead cattle operation, with notable fishing and hunting opportunities, along with intriguing investment potential in the domains of energy leasing and environmental credits.
The North Platte River is the key to the productivity of Haystack River Ranch. The river supplies irrigation water for several hundred acres of irrigated and sub-irrigated meadows, which is the mainstay for the cattle operation on the property. In addition, numerous springs and 30 stock ponds keep livestock supplied throughout the ranch property.
The ranch occupies the broad North Platte River bottomland at approximately 7000 feet elevation, along with the adjoining uplands and rocky Haystack Mountains. A mix of natural and irrigated grasslands, sagebrush, and rocky outcrops creates a classic "Wyoming mix" of habitat that serves big game herds of pronghorn, elk, and mule deer well. Hunting for these big game species, plus upland birds and waterfowl, is excellent on Haystack River Ranch.
Trout fishermen need no introduction to the North Platte, as one of America's great trout rivers. It is large enough on the ranch to be fished either by floating or wading, and offers resident populations of brown, rainbow, and cutthroat trout, and even some walleye. The presence of sprawling Seminoe Reservoir a few miles downstream means that trophy-sized fish make their way up to Haystack River Ranch on a regular basis. The chances of hiking into fish measured in pounds is very real at Haystack River Ranch! In addition, the famed Miracle Mile of the North Platte is only a short drive away, as well as outstanding stillwater fishing in Seminoe Reservoir itself.
Haystack River Ranch has proven to be a successful cattle operation due to its hay production, low overhead, and significant contiguous acreage available. Approximately 25,000 acres are deeded, and 40,960 acres are permitted BLM lands. A private lease from Anadarko of 23,527 acres and a small state lease complete the 92,447 acres controlled by the cattle operation. All told, the property supports over 9,000 AUMs. Historically, cows and calves have been turned out to pasture in the spring in the northern part of the ranch, and cows are wintered in the southern portion. Supplemental feeding is generally required from December through April. In recent years, the ranch has supported a yearling operation and is well suited for that as well.
Improvements on the ranch are geared towards an efficient cattle operation, and include two homes, a calving and vet barn, feedlot, horse barn and various outbuildings. Lying in generally open country, OHV or horse access is good throughout the property.
Haystack River Ranch can be operated successfully as an efficient cattle business with few changes or can be seen as an investment opportunity with recreation, wind power and conservation potential. The ranch is currently under a multi-year cattle lease offering very attractive annual income possibilities to a new owner. The hunting and fishing opportunities here could be marketed, and lodging constructed to support them. Wind rights, valuable in southern Wyoming, come with the property, and conservation easements or carbon credit opportunities could be an effective way to produce income as well.
Rawlins, a hub community of about 8,000 people, is located just southwest of the ranch. It is the county seat of Carbon County and has all amenities of a small city, including an abundance of retailers, restaurants, a hospital. The area is rich in history, including the original transcontinental railroad as well as being one of the haunts of outlaw Butch Cassidy and his gang. Today, the Wyoming Frontier Prison Museum is a popular attraction. Rawlins is well-connected to the rest of the world via Interstate 80, one the nation's major transportation arteries, and its municipal airport.
Haystack River Ranch shines as a fine opportunity for investment in a proven cattle ranch, with low overhead to keep it profitable. Investment growth may well be found in capitalizing on wind, recreation, and conservation. But in the end, perhaps the greatest asset of this property is the North Platte River itself which will for generations will nourish the land, cattle, wildlife, and not the least, trout that are as legendary as the river itself.

Elk (Unit 13)
Unit 13 is a General Hunting Unit and is roughly 304 square miles, of which about 75% of it is National Forest and/or public land. Terrain here is more gently contoured at lower elevations, but changes to steep and rugged in the Sierra Madre Mountains. Timbered slopes with a lot of upland areas are dominated by sagebrush, grass and mountain shrubs. Timber stands consist of lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine, and scattered pockets of aspen. This unit is arguably one of the most underrated units in the state. The elk population in the Routt and Medicine Bow National Forests is robust, with a reputation for producing trophy-sized bulls. The high-altitude habitat offers excellent foraging, contributing to the animals' impressive antler growth. Water Valley Ranch provides an incredible jumping off point for accessing the Wilderness Area that is home to many of the trophy big game animals that are harvested in this unit. General tag holders can hunt either sex elk here. Some antlerless seasons run from August to January in this unit.
