The historic 1240 +/- acre 3 Bar H Ranch lies along over 6 miles of the New Fork River East of Big Piney, Wyoming. The banks of the New Fork River served as an essential corridor for the Lander Trail which is a spur to the Oregon Trail. Covered Wagon ruts can still be seen on the grassy banks.
Land
3 Bar H Ranch has owned by the original family since it was homesteaded in the late 1880’s. This exceptional working/recreational ranch has unlimited potential. Several large “old river” oxbows and natural springs are a template for imagination. Natural wetlands offer excellent habitat for waterfowl and numerous raptors reside and nest in the old growth cottonwood trees.
This ranch lies along over 6 miles of the New Fork River, offering some of the best blue ribbon trout fishing in the country. The Wind River and Wyoming Mountain Ranges fill the skylines, North, Wast and East.
Improvements include two homes, working corals and facilities with a scale. Historic outbuildings are still used by the operation. Fencing is maintained and in great shape. A 540 acres state lease is also included. Currently the owners are harvesting between 500 and 650 tons of hay per year before turning the cattle out for late summer and fall.
This ranch is being sold with the entire owned mineral estate. Seller’s may parcel out.
