Discover more about Holy Cow Ranch

The Bighorn Mountains in north central Wyoming have been sought after for their quality wildlife resources since the earliest days of Native American inhabitance. The generally temperate weather patterns along the eastern slope of the Bighorns provide abundant water, strong grass and plentiful protection from weather and predation.

Rich wildlife populations include trophy whitetail and mule deer, as well as antelope and elk. The Holy Cow ranch is a paradise for waterfowl, small game, both upland and song birds, as well as native airborne and fur bearing predators. Several bass and trout ponds and over 3 miles of live water and riparian habitat through Rapid, Little Rapid, and Beaver Creeks occupy this property. Rapid Creek alone offers over 1.5 miles of exquisite trout fishing opportunities without leaving the ranch. An abundance of wildlife coupled with the diverse terrain, running water, and protected boundaries, makes for an unmatched outdoor experience whether hiking, horseback riding, hunting or fishing.

The current owners of the Holy Cow Ranch have chosen to lease grazing and hay production to a neighboring rancher and certainly a new owner could do the same to simplify day to day decisions. The foothills of the Bighorn Mountains provide bountiful feed and water for livestock, as well as wildlife. After the Spanish introduction of the horse to the new world, the Native Plains Tribes evolved into horse cultures and referred to this country as “Bots Sots” or the “very best” due to its superiority of feed.

Current estimates indicate approximately 300 acres of irrigated grass/alfalfa mix and native hay that are being produced on the ranch with hundreds more irrigated as pasture. The Holy Cow Ranch has the rights to 11 water adjudications that range in priority from the years 1882 through 1903. Carrying capacity would range widely depending on the management plan of the new owner. Suffice to say that the production opportunities are superb. In addition to the aforementioned resource values, approximately 1,000 acres of the southern portion of the ranch is found above the adjacent foothills into the protected timber of the adjoining Bighorn Mountains.
