Wind River Wilderness Horse Ranch, Wyoming
Mountain Ranch Vacation

Spend a week high in the Wind River Mountains where the road ends and the trails begin.  The ranch owners take pride in the simple rustic comfort their ranch provides guests. Cozy log cabins, main cook lodge and horse corrals await visitors here at 9,200 feet above sea level where the summer night air is brisk and the days temps are just right. The ranch is a perfect place for a family vacation, a summer retreat or a mountain getaway. Your stay includes a cabin, three meals a day in the cook lodge, horseback riding, fishing, natural history hikes and wildlife watching, and it can be upgraded to include pack trips or cattle roundups.
Since this is Wyoming's highest and most remote dude ranch, there is no electricity. However, we are proud of the rustic comfort we provide guests in each painstakingly handcrafted log cabin. The ranch is small, yet friendly with propane lights, sink and heater in each cozy cabin with shower house nearby(bring your sleeping bag and pillow and towel). The ranch is far beyond modern conveniences here at the entrance of the Popo Agie Wilderness Area. The Mountain Ranch Vacation is for people of all ages and is less arduous than the high mountain pack trips that start here also. Enjoy the wilderness solitude and alpine vistas!

Fishing

Cutthroat trout are the only native fish in the Wind River Range. However, thanks to the old-timers who horse-packed young fingerlings in milk cans to secluded lakes, today you can also enjoy catching golden, rainbow, mackinaw, brook and beautifully colored hybrid trout. Our part of the Winds is so vast that most folks sign up for one of our 5 - 7 day pack trips to reach just a few of the 30 lakes and many streams available from the ranch. We encourage catch and release fishing, but recommend fresh pan-fried trout at least once during your stay.
