The Sports Lure Travel Adventures presents:

Active Working Cattle Ranch Adventure in Wyoming
<<7-14 days>>

     This ranch is a working ranch with livestock being a large part of our business. We trail the cows to the mountains the end of June every year. After that, we move them from pasture to pasture at different times. You would be able to take part in these drives if you would like, and we could arrange the timing.

     The ranch runs 300 cow/calf pairs on 1800 scenic acres and summer pastures high in the Bighorn Mountains. We are constantly riding on the herd, moving to new pasture and checking the condition of the animals. When we're not in the saddle, we're "doing chores": fencing, doctoring livestock, cutting and baling hay, and irrigating pasturelands. Guests are invited to assist with any of these activities. At the ranch, anyone can learn to rope, herd cattle, and repair barbed wire fence.

Important Information:
  • Minimum is one week (7 nights)
  • Because of the style of riding, the ranch is unable to accommodate younger children.
  • Each guest has his or her own saddle horse, well mannered and ready to go

  • Sky Watching - Our skies offer a nightly celestial spectacle of stars, constellations, meteors and other objects, including the Milky Way, seldom visible in urban settings.
  • Jim Gatchell Memorial Museum - The Jim Gatchell Memorial Museum of the West (in Buffalo).  This remarkable "window on the past" offers a unique portrait of the people and events of America's frontier era. Fascinating displays feature items from the Johnson County Cattle War, the Dull Knife Battle, the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and every other significant event in local history
  • Fort Phil Kearny - In 1866, the Army constructed and garrisoned Fort Phil Kearny.   The fort was built on the Bozeman Trail to protect travelers headed to Montana's gold fields. Two famous battles (the Fetterman Fight and the Wagon Box Fight) are associated with the fort.
  • The TA Ranch - In the late 1880s and early '90s, the Johnson County Cattle War dominated the local stage - a classic confrontation between large cattlemen and small ranchers, it climaxed at the TA Ranch.
  • Hole-in-the-Wall Country - The "Outlaw Cave" (featured in the classic motion picture, "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid") is a favorite tour site. Visiting this hideout of the notorious Hole-in-the-Wall Gang is a spectacular adventure.
