Land Description
The Marton Ranch, located in central Wyoming, is a significant working livestock ranch with an extraordinary recreational resource that is without comparison in this part of the Rocky Mountain Region. The ranch consists of approximately 69,550 total acres, and includes an array of rangeland habitat, along with an approximate 8 miles of incredible river frontage on the North Platte River. This tail-water section, Grey Reef, of the North Platte River is world renown for producing incredible size and quantity of rainbow and brown trout, and is considered by most avid anglers as the best wild trout fishery in the State of Wyoming and quite possible the region. The ranch ranges in elevation from 5,300 feet near the Platte River portion, all the way up to 7,500 feet to the south near Bear Mountain, where much of the summer range is located.
The balance of the ranch consists of native grass and sage/grass flats, foothills and coulees, with some limited coniferous and deciduous tree habitat at the higher elevations. The ranch currently operates as a duel livestock operation, with approximately 450 mother cows, replacement heifers, and bulls along with 2,300 ewes, 485 yearling ewes, and rams. In addition to the incredible fishing resource, there is an abundance of wildlife and additional recreational opportunities. The ranch supports trophy size pronghorn as well as mule deer, elk, upland game birds, and incredible waterfowl hunting along the North Platte River.
