Lazy Spring Ranch

SIntroductionSituated in the shadow of the spectacular Big Horn Mountains,

Lazy Spring Ranch is located in Big Horn County. In the 1880’s,

cattlemen from the East settled in the Shell Valley known for its

fertile grazing lands and mild winter climate. With great views of

the Big Horn Mountains the ranch is a few minutes north from

historic and quaint town of Shell and about 15 miles from the

Greybull. Directly to the east is the Big Horn National Forest with

abundant wildlife, hunting, fishing and recreational opportunities.

The ranch is an hour from the famous cowboy town of Cody,

which offers skiing, shopping, fine dining, private air service,

hotels and easy access into Yellowstone National Park.

Comprised of 295 diverse deeded acres, the land is a blend of

lush irrigated hay fields, riparian corridor, cottonwood groves

and rangeland pastures. This combination provides excellent

habitat to wildlife, including elk, moose, mule deer, mountain

lion, pheasants and turkeys. Bordered by Bureau of Land

Management, an incoming owner will enjoy unlimited recreation,

privacy and peace unrivaled by other ranches.

With more than a mile of

Beaver Creek meandering

through the ranch, and 65

acres of irrigated hay fields,

the center piece of the ranch

exacting standards in 2009,

the lodge features 6,500 sqft of luxurious living

space on three levels. Ideally suited to a variety of

uses, the home is designed to maximize views of

the aesthetic features of the ranch and mountains

beyond. To compliment the lodge there is a

irrigated meadows produce

top quality grass/alfalfa

hay and provide grazing for

cattle and horses. Year-

round accessibility provides the opportunity to live

on the ranch continually or make this a summer

vacation property. With spectacular mountain views,

abundant wildlife, recreation and seclusion, Lazy

Improvements

The center piece of the ranch is the owner’s 6,500 sqft lodge. Built to exacting standards by Lindal Cedar Homes in 2010, this home features three levels of

living space.

Acreage/ OperationThe ranch boasts 295 deeded acres, which borders a Bureau of Land Management grazing lease. The BLM allotment combines with the ranch pastures to allow for a small horse or cattle operation. The hay fields offer 65 acres of hay production to supplement pasture grazing.

Nearby Live WaterBeginning high in the Big Horn Mountains, Shell Creek, Horse Creek and Beaver Creek all converge into the Big Horn River providing some of Wyoming’s best Cutthroat, Brown and Rainbow trout habitat. This area is still undiscovered, and anglers often bring in trophy quality Rainbows and Cutthroats.

Nearby formations have

yielded numerous dinosaur

fossils. Located to the west of

Shell is the Red Gulch Dinosaur

Track site, a rare collection

of dinosaur tracks. Located

at the base of the Big Horn

Mountains and at the mouth of

Shell Canyon, the Shell Valley served as the winter

hunting grounds for Shoshoni and Arapaho.

In 1886, Irish and English Cattlemen moving west

to get away from the fenced-in prairies of Nebraska

moved into the valley. During

the 1890’s more settlers on

the Oregon Trail chose to

make Shell their home, and

were attracted to the rich

soil, abundant wildlife and

sheer beauty of the Big Horn

Mountains. With large ranch

families, the Lower Shell schoolhouse was built

in 1903, and was one of the first buildings in the

area that did not use log construction. The school

functioned as a church and Sunday school and as a

community meeting place.

History

The Shell Valley is named for the abundance of fossil shells located in

the area.

Wildlife

The setting of Lazy Spring Ranch provides one of the area’s most diverse wildlife viewing environments.

Bordered by Bureau of Land Management lands and public lands and a stone’s throw from the Big Horn
