49 Wild Horse Ranch

Land Description

Discover one of the most dramatic parcels in Wild Horse Ranch. Lot 49 is defined by buff sandstone outcroppings that rise approximately 120 feet above the valley saddle below. Potential elevated homesites offer commanding views of Sheep Mountain to the west and wind protection from the natural rolling hills.

Land

Few parcels in Wild Horse Ranch offer the topographic variety of Tract 49. Native grasses and rolling hills give way to scattered brush, sandstone outcroppings, and a cave visible from a distance. The eastern portion of the property rests atop an elevated plateau, where views extend south to Jelm Mountain and west to the snow-capped peaks of the Medicine Bow Range.

BLM land borders the eastern edge, expanding the open-space feel by an additional 640 acres. A traditional buck fence defines the southern boundary, adding to the ranch character of the setting. The adjacent parcel and improvements at 183 Wild Horse Ranch Road are also available.

Recreation

Wild Horse Ranch residents enjoy private access to Lake Hattie, complete with a boat ramp just minutes away. Fishing opportunities include Brown, Cutthroat, and Rainbow Trout, Kokanee Salmon, and Yellow Perch. There is also a common picnic area on the eastern edge of Sheep Mountain. Wild horses and pronghorn are pictured nearby.

Located just 11 miles from Centennial, Wyoming-the gateway to the Snowy Mountain Range-this property offers year-round recreation including world-class snowmobiling, downhill and cross-country skiing, ATV riding, hiking, camping, rock climbing, kayaking, mountain biking, and exceptional trout fishing.

Hunters will appreciate abundant wildlife including whitetail deer, elk, moose, antelope, and upland game, with frequent sightings of bald eagles and hawks. The area includes elk Area 9, antelope Area 45, and deer Area 76, with over-the-counter elk tags available.
