Big Horn, WY

The Big Horn Mountain Foothills are a land of legacy (see video). They were home to the Sioux and the Cheyenne as well as the Crow Indians, and Chief Crazy Horse was born here. His mother was buried in Little Goose Canyon and he lived and spend most of his life trying to defend his home land. It's a land of plenty: plenty of wildlife, scenery and great people. The character of the people who live here is perhaps a reflection of this great and beautiful land or perhaps the character has been shaped by the land. For whatever reason, this land full of history, is still the last best place and it's rare to find such great expanses of undeveloped land. Yes, much of it is private, but it's still there to enjoy from a scenic perspective. It's rare to find ranches for sale in this area, but occasionally they do come on the market. for more information about this unique area, please wisit my website, which is full of properties for sale in the Sheridan Area, or contact me.

This Thursday and Friday at the Big Horn Equestrian Center, the Summer Fundraiser Event will feature Mr. Doug Sheehan- the Knot's Landing actor who will play the Queen and follow up last year's event, which was tremendously funny. The Big Horn Equestrian Center is a fabulous venue for this event in Big Horn Wyoming. For more information on this event or for how you can become a member of this organization or a member of our incredible community in the Sheridan Wyoming area, contact us.

This is the Kellie Howie BBQ and Skeeter's Patio with the polo fields beyond. The play will take place on the patio.

Have you ever spent a summer in Big Horn WY or in the surrounding Big Horn Mountains? Maybe you spent a summer at one of our world-famous dude ranches, or maybe you grew up here and then moved away for one reason or another, as many of us have done. If you're like me, now that you've seen what the rest of the world has to offer, you're now ready to get back to the best place on earth. I did this over 14 years ago and I have no regrets, especially now. Not only is this a beautiful place to live, work and play, but we have low taxes, low crime and high quality of life. Take a trip down "memory lane" with this video, which shows the Big Horn foothills south of Big Horn, WY from a super cub. You start out over the world-famous Big Horn Equestrian Center and the Flying H Polo Club and then you take a nice voyage along the face, overlooking some incredible scenery! Enjoy.

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.
