Ranch Operations

The current ranch operations include livestock (cattle) grazing and hay production, both of which are leased to local neighbors. There may be an opportunity to increase irrigated hay ground and production through the securing of additional stored reservoir water rights, in addition to the adjudicated State of Wyoming water rights that currently exist.
