Overview
Productive Ranch with Recreational Beauty
Temple Peak Ranch is a thriving property that combines productivity and recreational beauty on the western slope of the Wind River Range. The ranch boasts high-quality, efficient facilities for both cattle and horses. Located just below the Wind River Range and overlooked by Temple Peak, the headquarters offer views and opportunities for outdoor activities. The ranch consists of 3,610 deeded acres, 39,089 BLM and 240 State of Wyoming lease acres for a total of 42,939 contiguous acres. The ranch is cross fenced into nine pastures for rotational grazing. The fences are four and five wire barbed wire on wood and steel posts and are in good condition. The elevation of 7,150 to 7,450 feet above sea level provides cooler temperatures. The terrain is flat, lush meadows and rolling hills, which are native grass and sagebrush covered. Muddy Creek is a riparian zone that provides year-round live water and is also a trout fishery. There is one small reservoir along Muddy Creek. The Wind River Mountains to the east and the Wyoming Range to the west make this a scenic property. The grazing of Temple Peak Ranch for 2025 was 650 pairs and 100 yearlings for the summer grazing months (5 months). There are two Zimmatic center pivots, for a total of 140 acres and planted to alfalfa with a new stand on the north pivot. There are approximately 525 acres of flood-irrigated meadows consisting of Timothy, Garrison and Brome grass, with water via irrigation ditches from Muddy Creek. The ranch has produced enough high-quality grass and alfalfa hay for all the winter feedings and regrowth for fall grazing. An average year of hay production is 2 1/2 tons per acre with two cuttings on the pivots and one cutting on the meadows. The cattle handling facilities feature pipe pens and sorting alley, a Silencer hydraulic squeeze chute, livestock scale, grain bin, semi and a truck load out. The equine facilities consist of a 200' x 325' pipe arena with an automatic chute, a 200' x 75' calf roping alley with a manual chute, a round pen, hay storage, and numerous covered and open horse runs with automatic waterers. The 2,600 sq. ft. barn features six indoor stalls with Poly-last floor, pipe runs with automatic waterers, a tack room and a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment with a full kitchen. The barn features a large concrete patio and covered porch. The property has two domestic wells, two stock wells, ten solar livestock wells on BLM lease ground, live water from Muddy Creek and South Creek, irrigation ditches and two small reservoirs. The two-story home, built in 2005, has cedar siding, shaker shingles, and a metal wainscoting. The roof is asphalt shingles and metal roofing.
