The Heather Creek Ranch, first settled in 1886, has been in only two strong ownerships over the last 77 years.
Its location in the grand Upper North Platte River Valley – possibly Wyoming’s most desirable big-game hunting and fly-fishing destination – affords the next fortunate owner a rare opportunity to join one of the Nation’s most admired fraternities – cattle ranching in the Great American West!
This beautiful and authentic ranch possesses strong water rights and is a sea of high-protein summer grass which “hardens” in August and September to reliably put 200-pound gains on quality yearling steers.
Heather Creek is a simple operation – five months a year – no expensive haying machinery and equipment – no challenging calving season.  The next successor may choose to further simplify life by leasing the Ranch to a reputable rancher in the Valley who wouldn’t need to occupy the homes.
The Ranch owns an astounding 138-acre parcel of land within the Medicine Bow National Forest about six miles south of Headquarters which contains a stunning 37-acre lake virtually surrounded by stands of conifers.
With depths reaching 55 feet, trout winter over nicely and grow to good sizes.  A small cabin provides enjoyable shelter for exhilarating fly-fishing and heart-thumping big-game hunting.
The working improvements are well-maintained with good fencing plus easily accessed shipping corrals and scales.  A four-bedroom home built in 1910 was remodeled and is used by the Owners every Summer.  It is complimented by a comfortable two-bedroom guest home built in 2010 which enjoys great views.
