Welcome to Our Ranch
We invite you to visit our historic working ranch, nestled in the mountains of Wyoming and Colorado's high country. our family has been ranching in this scenic valley since 1881, when A.W. Salisbury ventured west in search of gold.
We raise cattle sheep and horses on thousands of acres of the most beautiful country in the Rocky Mountains. We are offering a unique opportunity to work with sheep and cattle in a real ranch environment.
This isolated valley offers the ideal opportunity for those who wish to relax and explore nature. The area abounds in wildlife, including deer, elk, antelope, black bear, mountain lions, bobcats, foxes, badgers and coyotes. Birdwatchers will enjoy seeing bald eagles, golden eagles, several species of hawks, sandhill cranes, sage grouse, and doves, as well as many smaller species.
