Well, maybe we're not Boulder, CO, but I'm glad. We do have great cycling though here in cowboy country. Yes, I am a cyclist and though not competitive anymore, I still like to get out on my road bike or my mountain bike in the Big horn Mountains. Last evening, I took to the roads south of Sheridan and around Big Horn, WY and I thought it would be fun to video some of it. Every time when I go out, I think of the poor people who don't or won't ever get to experience some of the peacefulness that comes from living here. While not everyone can experience polo, which by the way, is the most fun you can have with your clothes on, just about everyone can ride a bike. For most though, a bike ride means contending with traffic, noise, pollution, etc. For me, it's an ocaissional deer that I might have to avoid. Even when I just really don't want to go get some exercise, this ride (click here for a journey around Big Horn) will leave me feeling refreshed in more ways than one. So if you like cycling, check out the Sheridan Wyoming area. We have a great place to live!
Captain Bruce Garber flew his Super Cub so I could record this video- "Flight Along the Big Horns" that starts near Moncrieffe Ridge on the Big Horn Mountains. We flew over the beautiful Big Horn Equestrian Center, home of the Big Horn Polo Club and also the venue for MARS Big Horn Soccer Cup. Today it was the DUCKS UNLIMITED Greenwings program below us. To the West are the perfect polo fields of the Flying H Polo Club and then you can see the old original venue for Big Horn Polo that they used in the early 1900s where they held the Big Horn Races at Gallatin Flats. We then flew over Little Goose Creek and gazed up into Little Goose Canyon. Farther to the West, you can see the Red Grade Road, which takes you deep into our backyard playground- The Bighorn National Forest and the Big Horn Mountain High Country. What an awesome place to live, at the foot of the Big Horns in Big Horn, WY.
Do you have what it takes to handle living here in Sheridan, Wyoming? Can you handle the Sheridan lifestyle?I know it's tough, but someone has to do it. I mean waking up and breathing crystal clean morning air and viewing Little Goose Peak rising above the Little Goose Valley floor is a pretty darn tough way to start out the day.
And then, if that wasn't enough, I had to stop for this traffic jam.
But once I finally got past all these obstacles, I had to endure this..
Wow. I wonder how I do it. Do you have what it takes to handle this? If so, call me for some counseling.
One of the finest and most fun youth soccer tournaments in the country is played at the Big Horn Equestrian Center. It's the MARS Big Horn Soccer Cup at the base of the beautiful Big Horn Mountains near Sheridan and Big Horn, WY. The Sheridan County Soccer Association and MARS put this tournament on for youth soccer from U-10 through U-14. The scenery is spectacular and there's plenty of action as 114 teams from Wyoming, Montana and South Dakota come to play. Tons of Fun!
Oh, are we here to play soccer too? It's not just about Dove bars, slides and M&Ms?
Sheridan Wyoming has once again received an award. This time, we've had the the honor of being recognized by Newsmax.com as one of the top 25 Uniquely American Cities and Towns. It's not surprising for those of us who live here. We already know that this is a uniquely American town. Sheridan, Wyoming is #21

Even though it's a relatively small percentage of people who know about our area, it's amazing how many wonderful "small world" connections there are to the Sheridan Area, the heart of "Where the Rivers Run North". Many people have either visited or know someone who has visited the Big Horn Mountains or a dude ranch such as Eaton's Ranch, Paradise Guest Ranch, The Rafter Y or The HF Bar Ranch. It's the experiences from here that they remember. Those experiences are rich from the connection to the people and activities in addition to the beautiful landscapes. We think it's the connection to this area that brings people back. Maybe it was a completely relaxing vacation- something that's healthy for a body and soul, or maybe someone grew up here and now wants to return or perhaps they spent a summer working on a dude ranch in the past. We know there are connections just waiting to happen and that's where we come in. We can help you re-connect to the lifestyle here and find the landscape that will suit you best. Whether it's a home in Sheridan, a building site or a ranch, we are here to link your lifestyle to your desired landscape. We can also offer land and ranch management for anyone who might want such services. Contact us for more information.

Spring is once again turning the Sheridan area green. The continued moisture, whether in the form of snow or rain, is producing a vibrant green blanket beneath the Big Horn Mountains. Soon, leaves will re-appear on trees and the mountain snows will yield to the warmer temperatures, while the landscapes and mountain views become a sight to behold. Once you've experienced this magical time here, it's not hard to understand why those of us who live here do so.
