America’s Greatest Ranch
The Land
440 Square Miles of Untamed Beauty
The ranch is made up of three distinct regions:
High Country – Towering over 10,000’, these spruce and aspen-filled mountains feature trout lakes, large calving elk herds, huge sub-irrigated meadows, spring-fed creeks and unforgettable views.
Lower Country – Rolling grasslands, large mesas, creek bottoms, wide draws, oak and pine covered hillsides, canyons, ridges, and river-fed farmland, home to thousands of cattle, pronghorn, elk, deer, and bison.
Greenwood (Baldy Mountain) – Rugged wilderness climbing above timberline to 12,160’ with canyons, hillsides, alpine forests, snow-covered peaks, two trout streams and beaver dams.
“The UU Bar is amazingly beautiful. I'm so happy to be part of capturing the beauty and telling its story.”
