This is your chance to own the northern parcel of the popular Wishbone Hunting Ranch, where countless big game hunters have walked away with a trophy buck elk or bison over the years.

Featuring live water, hardy native grasses, and natural winter cover for livestock, this property will support cattle, elk, or bison. Offered with a companion listing (Wishbone Ranch, South Parcel) for use as a hunting preserve. LAND DESCRIPTION This fabulous property consists of 1,005+- deeded acres, located adjacent to a concurrent listing by a different seller, allowing the buyer the option to acquire the entire Wishbone Ranch, if desired. Seller indicates that for the last 20 years, this ranch has been an excellent location to winter livestock, with all the available water, grass, and natural cover provided by the buttes, draws, and Ponderosa pine trees that animals need to pass the winter in safety. On this North Parcel of the Wishbone ranch, grassland provides your livestock with rich pasture for grazing. Many varieties of hardy, nutritious grasses grow in the pastures, including Side Oats Grama, Blue Grama, Big Blue, Western Wheatgrass, Prairie Chord Grass, Crested Wheatgrass, Intermediate Wheatgrass, Indian Grass, Alkali Sacaton, Wild Rye, and some Immigrant Kosha. Water is available on the property in the seasonal Plum Creek as well as 4 dams that retain water. There is also a stock tank fed by buried water lines from a well on the adjacent property (Wishbone Ranch, South Parcel), which could be maintained with an easement establishing a shared well agreement with the buyer of that property. A fence built of 8-foot woven wire surrounds approximately half this property and extends around the perimeter of the companion listing, (the south parcel of the Wishbone Ranch), allowing you the option to contain game for hunting. The current owners have just wintered approximately 50 bison, 50+- elk, and 150 cattle between the north and south parcels of the property. IMPROVEMENTS A high-quality 8-foot woven wire fence surrounds the property and provides security for keeping animals in/out, adding great value. (except for where it borders the South Parcel of the Wishbone Ranch). Four dams have been constructed on the seasonal Plum Creek for year-round water supply. A stock tank, fed by buried water lines from a well on the adjacent property (Wishbone Ranch, South Parcel) also ensures continuous water supply. Access to this could be maintained with an easement establishing a shared well agreement with the owner of southern property. The entire ranch has long been home to Wishbone Outfitters, which provided guided trophy elk and buffalo bull hunts. The buyer of both this listing and the adjacent South Parcel could easily build on the momentum of 20 years of name recognition to again host hunters who come for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
