7Notes from the landowner
Rocky Ridge Ranch is a DIY elk hunting property located southeast of Glenrock, WY in unit 7. The property is made up of over 3,500 acres, which includes over 1,200 acres of landlocked WY state land. This area is ideal for archery elk hunting, and unit 7 is notorious for turning out trophy elk year after year. This area of Wyoming was lucky enough not to be hit as hard by the harsh winter of 2023, so it didn't experience the amount of winter kill those other parts of the state did. Rocky Ridge will have access points on either side of the property, which is ideal for a hunter who is playing the wind or other conditions, to get in close to their prey. All hunters must be current Infinite Outdoors members to book this property and must obtain all legal licensing to hunt in the state of Wyoming. This is a 5-day hunt; by booking the first day of your hunt, you are automatically booked for the following four days as well.

Elk in particular, utilize the understory in both forested and mountain shrub habitats. This Property Is unique in the fact that it offers an abundance of mountain shrub habitat and excellent habitat for migrating elk. Pressure from the state land on the property will also push more elk to utilize the sections of private located on the ranch. Be sure to look for large congregations of elk as they start to utilize lower elevations as the winter progresses. Resident herds also stay year-round making this an excellent chance to harvest elk throughout the entire elk season. Glass draws for bedding elk and do lots of glassing over elk grazing in the sage flats, draws, and shrub habitat. Hunters must be strategic in their approach, use the land to your advantage, lots of glassing, watch the wind, and position yourself with patience to capitalize on the right opportunity.
