Description

Spanning 916,076± acres, Pathfinder Ranches is larger than Rhode Island and comprises nearly one percent of Wyoming’s total landmass. Assembled under unified ownership across four counties, the ranch stretches between the Ferris, Pedro, and Green Mountain ranges and encompasses Pathfinder Reservoir and 20 miles of the Sweetwater River, including a vast expanse of high plains, foothills, and river valleys. Pathfinder offers a rare combination of scale, water, wildlife, and history. Devil’s Gate and Independence Rock anchor the landscape, while segments of the Oregon, Mormon, California, and Pony Express Trails weave through the property.

Today, Pathfinder operates as a leased cattle and horse enterprise, supported by reliable water resources with significant pre-1904 irrigation rights and a well-established grazing program. Alongside its agricultural output, the ranch supports diverse wildlife and is home to the first and largest sage-grouse habitat conservation bank approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This conservation asset generates revenue through the sale of mitigation credits. The ranch also plays a key role in ongoing bighorn sheep restoration efforts.

For a future owner, Pathfinder offers the chance to move beyond leasing and shape a legacy in livestock, land, and conservation. It is a singular opportunity to own and operate a property of generational scale in the heart of the American West.
