River Acreage Off Market

The River Ranch is a family ranch that has been in continuous operation for nearly 60 years. The agricultural and hunting businesses operate on 814 +/- deeded acres along many miles of the braided channels of the Wind River, an ''inholding'' within the vast open landscapes of the 2.2 million acre Wind River Reservation. This is a very rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of the Old West. Access to the ranch is over the historic Black Bridge , originally constructed as a railroad bridge in 1883 and later moved to the ranch. It is now part of the Rails to Trails network along the Wind River. Crossing that majestic iron bridge is like being transported into the Old West. In the West water is gold. The ranch has - 1907/09 water rights diverting flow right out of the Wind River into the historic Deadwood Dick Ditch and across the ranch. Also, there are 2 crystal clear cold water natural artesian springs.
The former ranch homestead and the new hunting camp are located near a pond, within the eastern part of the 2.2 million acre Wind River Reservation. The word *inholding* means the ranch is *in* the Indian Reservation, with rare private access across the Black Bridge over the Wind River. The Wind River flows fast and cold out of the majestic Wind River Mountains, containing more glaciers that Glacier National Park in Montana. The solitude is remarkable, interrupted only by abundant wildlife: deer, antelope, turkeys, pheasants and multitudes of swirling water fowl, pursued by raptors, golden and bald eagles with nearby nests. The vast wide open views are highlighted by mystical sunrises and sunsets.
