Rocky Ridge Ranch - Elk

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.

Right outside Glenrock WY, Rocky Ridge Ranch offers a unique opportunity to harvest an elk. This region in Wyoming is renowned for the abundance and diversity of productive habitat. 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.

After your hunt, you will be sent an automated Harvest Report. To assist Infinite Outdoors in maintaining the quality of properties - and continue to put conservation at the forefront - we require that the harvest report be completely filled out and returned. Failure to fill out the harvest report within 2 weeks of the hunt taking place will result in a $25 fine. If you are unsuccessful in filling your tag, Infinite Outdoors still needs to have that information provided to them. This is how we will make changes to future year's harvest quotas and continue to be the most well managed access and conservation platform in the country.

If you are successful in harvesting an animal on this property, as a request of the landowners you must send in the Landowner Coupon that is attached to your big game license. Any hunter who successfully fills their tag but fails to return the landowner coupon will receive a $25 fine. This will be issued to the landowner in lieu of the money they would have received from the state through the landowner coupon program. The Harvest Report (noted above) is how you will notify Infinite Outdoors of your hunt results. Unsuccessful hunters are not required to return a coupon. The additional income driven through landowner coupons is a great way to continue incentivizing landowners to allow access to their land - we ask for your help in this endeavor, to keep quality access available at the touch of a button. Upon successful harvest, please send your landowner coupon to: PO Drawer 2360, Casper, WY 82602.
