Medicine Bow North - Pronghorn

Located near historic Medicine Bow Wyoming, this property is classic high dessert Wyoming. The property, and close to 5000 acres of contiguous BLM -much of which is land locked - presents a terrific opportunity for antelope. This area of Wyoming is the definition of "checkerboard" with alternating private and public land parcels. Access to much of this property can be difficult. With nearby Medicine Bow and the Historic Virginian Hotel as a base of operations this property allows for a unique access point to the high desert of Southern Wyoming.

This property is situated at the southern end of the Freezeout Mountains, an area renowned for its rugged terrain and diverse wildlife. On the west side of the property lies the Medicine Bow River, a year-round water source that is crucial for maintaining the local ecosystem. This river serves as an essential lifeline for Pronghorn and other big game populations, providing water in an otherwise dry region. The property is characterized by deep, cut sandstone valleys that are lined with dense juniper groves, and picturesque plateaus. The surrounding escarpments, with their sagebrush-covered plains, provide a unique mix of open spaces and rugged terrain, making this area a perfect sanctuary prime habitat for Pronghorn. Because of the terrain’s natural topography herds of Antelope feel comfortable moving between water sources and escape routes. A high-quality spotting scope is invaluable in identifying movement and locating antelope in this country.
