The Divide Ranch - SOLD!

Cattle and Sheep Ranch

Alternating Crested Wheatgrass and Smooth Bromegrass

The Divide Ranch is a brand new cattle and sheep ranch for sale just north of Wheatland at Dwyer Junction, WY. This multi-species grazing ranch has high plains scenic landscapes for your visual enjoyment and great grass, water and fences for livestock enterprises. A really great, and enthusiastic tenant with excellent regenerative agriculture experience, currently leases the ranch and would happily stay and continue leasing for someone who might want a turnkey income producing investment. This same tenant also owns some adjacent land, which could pose a scenario where he would sell, thereby making a larger ranch (please inquire for details).

Whether you’re looking for a homestead on Wyoming’s high plains, with long vistas all the way to Laramie Peak, or a small working ranch to operate yourself, or just an investment property with turnkey management, or any number of these combinations, the Divide Ranch can potentially meet your expectations. The plains are punctuated with some limestone outcrops and draws, giving the landscape some interesting and aesthetically pleasing features.

From a homestead perspective, this is your chance to build your dream home on 2,142 acres under Wyoming’s beautiful skies, where neighbors are out of sight, but close enough if you need a helping hand. With many desirable locations, one can choose just the right spot. There are enough locations for multiple building sites, if one were looking for such an opportunity like a conservation development. Given the sprawling landscape and recreational opportunities, both on the ranch and nearby at Guernsey State Park, about 10 miles to the East, and Glendo State Park, about 25 miles to the North for boating and fishing, there are plenty of opportunities for lifestyle enjoyment and clean country living.

The Divide Ranch has ongoing agricultural practices with an existing tenant who currently runs sheep and cows. This same tenant will happily stay on the ranch, if one would like this turnkey approach. The ranch provides grazing opportunities for cattle, sheep, or horses. Additionally, it offers hunting for mule deer and antelope. For easy management, the property has been divided into several pastures, each with its own water tank. Due to multiple water wells, pipelines and stock tanks, the ranch is well watered too.

Historical Landmarks

The Oregon Trail was one of the primary routes used by the immigrants’ westward migration across the plains from 1841 to 1869. Today, in many parts of Wyoming, remnants of The Oregon Trail can still be seen. Some of the best examples are the wagon wheel ruts, located 1/2 mile south of the town of Guernsey, off Highway 26. Register Cliff located two miles southeast of Guernsey provided travelers with a “chalkboard” where they placed their names for those who followed. The landmark still remains much the way it looked to pioneers on wagon trains journeying West.
