Walton Ranch ◆

Wyoming v Teton County v Jackson Hole

“A rare opportunity to own wide-open spaces in one of the most sought-after locations in the world.”

T

he iconic Walton Ranch in Jackson Hole has come on the market for the first time. Sited along the legendary Snake River and adjacent to the Grand Tetons with views over the entire valley, the 1,848-acre working ranch has its own resident elk herd and fishing access along the Snake River. This naturally preserved setting is surrounded by the

grandeur of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks and yet is five miles to downtown Jackson and fifteen minutes to world-class ski resorts and private air service. Home to some of America’s top corporate leaders, Jackson offers a sophisticated mix of restaurants, boutiques and cultural activities.

With a great expanse of public land, including two national parks and three renowned ski resorts, Jackson Hole is a year-round adventure destination. Globally recognized as a

10

Volume 44 Farm&Ranch West

sophisticated mountain resort destination for the adventure-seeking elite and a rejuvenating retreat for those seeking tranquility, Jackson is home to many of the nation’s top business executives and the domicile of many successful nationally-recognized corporations. Wyoming has some of the most favorable tax and asset protection laws in the nation and Teton County has the highest personal per capita income in the U.S.—surpassing Manhattan.

Walton Ranch is situated in an enviable location along three miles of the east bank of the Snake River with year-round paved road access. The Grand Teton Mountain Range lies along the western side of the valley and rises to 13,772 feet providing a spectacular backdrop to the Walton Ranch. With its natural valley

formation and unobstructed views, almost any spot on the ranch affords snow-capped mountain vistas.

In order to protect the unique attributes of the ranch, the owners placed the property under conservation easement with the Jackson Hole Land Trust in 1983, marking a historical turning point in private land conservation at the time. The conservation easement gift of the Walton Ranch is the second largest private conservation effort in Teton County history, second only to the Rockefeller family’s gift of Grand Teton National Park.

Seldom do you find such a beautiful ranch with outstanding fishing and hunting opportunities in a desirable area and convenient Volume 44 Farm&Ranch West

to a popular town, world-class skiing, modern airport and two national parks. To assemble all of these ingredients can take a lifetime, but now—for the first time—this legacy property is available in one of the most enchanting places on earth and in the most tax-favorable state in the country.

Opportunities like this do not come around very often. v

The Walton Ranch is available for the first time inclusive of all real estate, improvements, water and mineral rights for $100,000,000. Contact Ron Morris at 970 535-0881 or Billy Long at 970 927-3850.

T

Canada v Saskatchewan v Pleasantdale RM v Naicam This patiently assembled 36,000-acre offering represents one of the most balanced beef-andgrain combinations available in North America today. Encompassing 19,170 deeded acres and 16,900 acres of private-provincial-tribal leased land, the 3L Cattle Ranch currently carries 2,500 brood cows + the 2011 calf crop + yearlings born in 2010 + replacement heifers + range bulls.

Spring-born steer calves typically weigh about 650 pounds in October; yearling steers shipped in August and September go out at about 850 pounds. Additionally, the Ranch puts up all required winter feed and harvests about 1,700 acres in cash crops: canola, oats and barley. The growing season climate is remarkable – 61 millimeters or 2.4 inches of rainfall per month from May through August and plenty of sunshine produce average annual crop yields of 60 bushels of wheat, 75 bushels of barley, 40 bushels of canola and 85 bushels of oats with no irrigation! Knowledgeable prospective buyers may choose to convert more land to cash crops and harvest the abundant grass pastures with yearling cattle. The 3L Ranch lies in Saskatchewan’s renown “black soil” region about 210 kilometers or 130 miles east of Saskatoon. Two fine smaller towns, Tisdale and Melfort, are within about 60 kilometers or 35 miles northeast and northwest of the headquarters. In the past five years, Canada’s economy is most enviable and Saskatchewan’s future is especially bright.

The Historic Horse Ranch

T

Montana v Fergus County v Lewistown

The Historic Horse Ranch is nestled in the rolling hills of central Montana about 35 miles northeast of Lewistown. The Ranch is comprised of approximately 25,323 total acres including 22,812 deeded acres plus 2,371 acres of state lease and a small 140-acre federal permit. Positioned on the northern side of the Judith Mountain Range, the Ranch is a rare opportunity to own one of the premier blockedup and contiguous grass ranches in the Big Sky State. The Ranch is ideally located in one of Central Montana’s most desirable and appealing areas. Lewistown and Fergus County afford all the resources required for successful ranching and personal enjoyment of a safe and quiet lifestyle away from the maddening crowds of metropolitan America. The Horse Ranch was first put together to supply remount horses for the U.S. Cavalry in forts throughout the vast Montana Territory in the 1860s and into the 1890s. The Ranch was purchased by Vernon F. Taylor in 1947 and held in the Taylor Family until 1963 when it was passed on to his son, James C. Taylor. These visionaries have spent the last 64 years creatively shaping and improving this significant holding. The expansive operation contains sufficient hay meadows and summer pasture to comfortably run 700 to 750 head of brood cows on a year ’round basis plus a full complement of replacement heifers and bulls. Even to the untrained eye, it is apparent that the grazing resource has been managed conservatively. The remarkable condition of this historic ranch is the result of over six decades of masterful stewardship. The deep timbered draws and grassy plateaus also provide prime habitat for the resident elk herd, trophy mule deer, antelope, wild turkey and upland game birds including sharp-tailed grouse, pheasant and sage grouse. The Horse Ranch represents an unusual opportunity to acquire a true operating ranch with enough size and carrying capacity to make some business sense even in today’s tumultuous economic climate. Prospective buyers in solid financial condition with an interest in portfolio diversification and a desire to own one of Montana’s true working outfits should seriously consider The Horse Ranch. It is rare to find a large contiguous land holding with such strong operating resources and authentic history. The Ranch is offered at $15,000,000 by one of Montana’s most respected ranching families.

“Where Uniting Horses & Humans to Heal is a Way of Life”

A 501c3 non-profit organization fully funded by the public, United In Light, Inc. is an educational and therapeutic sanctuary, providing a lifetime home for mature, abused, neglected draft horse breeds. Since 2003, UIL had provided a sanctuary for mature draft horse breeds from the PMU Industry and an untimely death. The goal at UIL is to “preserve the dignity of these gentle giants” by: • Receiving horses from across the nation • Rehabilitating and reuniting horses with humans to heal • Uniting young draft horses with loving owners

Your donation not only saves a working horse, but also enables people of all ages to walk amongst these “Gentle Giants”.
