ROCKING BAR RANCH Meeteetse, Wyoming
INTRODUCTION Located around 6,000 feet at the base of the Absaroka Mountain foothills lies a one of a kind property-- The Rocking Bar Ranch. Just outside the historic town of Meeteetse, Wyoming is a ranch that has the "perfect trifecta" of hunting, fishing, and cattle production. Rocking Bar stands apart from other ranches as a property managed for over 200 years in full harmony with its environment. Years of careful stewardship have paid off for the health of one mile stretch of the cutthroat-filled Greybull River and a diversity of wildlife that represents the best of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. OFFERED AT 9,950,000 | 17-2106
"THE TRIFECTA" For those seeking a "full package" of proven cattle ranching, excellent big game hunting, wildlife viewing, and world-class trout fishing, the Rocking Bar Ranch is unsurpassed! The Greybull River, which flows through 1.9 miles of the ranch, also attests to the unspoiled West. The Greybull supports what many biologists consider the best remaining genetically pure populations of Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout-- direct descendants from the fish that lived here when the land was still the domain of the ShoShone Indians. With the Greybull never been stocked with trout or other exotic species, the superb water quality, it offers a native fishing experience that has depleted throughout the remainder of the West.
The "Full Package" There is no comparison to this incredible property. With the cutthroats routinely growing in excess of 20 inches, the healthy riparian environment, and the unparallel wildlife viewing, there isn't much else you can ask for. Even though Rocking Bar Ranch has great access to the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem on the property itself, Yellowstone National Park is only 85 miles away! Big game hunting on this Wyoming ranch is superb, especially for trophy whitetail deer, mule deer, and elk (350+ inch bulls have been taken). This Wyoming cattle and hunting ranch qualifies for coveted Wyoming landowner deer, elk, and antelope tags. Those seeking evidence that the unspoiled west still exists will be glad to know that wolves and grizzly bears occassionally roam through the ranch. Large herds of elk, whitetail deer, and muel deer will routinely be seen enjoying the rich grasslands of the Rocking Bar Ranch.
PRODUCTION OF ROCKING BAR RANCH
On top of Rocking Bar's 9,048 deeded acres, the ranch includes over 6,000 acres of BLM and State grazing leases. To add on to Rocking Bar's endless production capabilities, the ranch holds historic water rights that contribute to irrigating approximately 500 acres. This irrigated land can produce 1,500-2,000 tons of hay annually. This ranch can support 400+ cow/calf pairs year-round.
On the banks of the Greybull River lies a 3,800-square-foot custom home with four bedrooms, four baths, and a garage. Near the original ranch headquarters is a 1,352-square-foot calving shed, corrals, and a 1,304-square-foot home built in 1910. There is also a 3,937-square-foot modular home with a finished walkout basement overlooking the ranch meadows. The snow-capped Absaroka Mountains serve as a scenic backdrop throughout the property. The Rocking Bar Ranch is easily accessible year-round by a paved road from Meeteetse. The resort town of Cody (eastern gateway to Yellowstone National Park) is only 30 minutes away and offers an excellent public airport.
