Big Horn, WY

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?

On Sunday, March 29, it started raining and then the rain turned to snow. It looked like the weather forcasters were going to get this right. We hurried home after my daughter's basketball tournament and got the horses fed enough to last a few days and then we hunkered down. The snow started coming in sideways for about 16-18 hours. Schools shut down and so did just about everything, and then it stopped. Voila, the results are below.

These photos were all taken in the Big Horn WY area. The white will give way to green in a week or so and then the summer vacationers will start making their annual pilgrimige to our wonderful place in the world to visit Wyoming Dude Ranches, The Sheridan WYO Rodeo, Big Horn Polo, fly fishing and all that the Big Horn Mountains have to offer.

Big Horn, WY is still one of the great places in this world to live, work and play. With the timeless beauty of the Big Horn Mountains for a backdrop and the outstanding character of the wonderful people in this community, Big Horn truly is one of the last best places.

Exquisite! That word porbably caome as close to describing this property as anything can. You really need to actuall walk upon this land to appreciate it, but short of paralleling Chief Crazy Horse's footsteps, this will have to suffice until you get here to see it.

This could be one of the most unique offerings anywhere in the West. When you think of prime, spectacular western properties, you'd probably imagine an end-of-the-road masterpiece where you're in your own paradise that has a sense of exclusivity yet it's inviting, relaxing and beautiful. It would be far enough away from civilization to have quiet enjoyment, yet close enough to afford you the amenities you expect. Welcome to the OH

This gem has historical significance in the Sheridan and Big Horn area. Once home to Chief Crazy Horse and then home to Oliver Henry "Noll" Wallop and his heirs, the OH has never had a building; just the Plains Indians, the Wallop family, horses, cattle and wildlife have enjoyed it. Now it awaits your lifestyle. With just over 200 total acres, the OH, nestled in the Trabing Creek drainage and bordered by conservation easements, is as good as it gets. VIEW VIDEO.

Named after Oliver Henry Wallop, the OH Ranch represents the very essence of Big Horn, WY. This gorgeous ranch borders the Canyon Ranch and sits along Trabing Creek at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains. Oliver Henry, AKA Noll Wallop, (written bout extensively in Where the Rivers Run North, by Sam Morton) was one of the great horsemen who helped shape the area into one of the greatest equestrian areas in the country. Not only is this an area ideally suited for raising excellent horses; it's a great area for sportsmen or anyone looking for a better quality of life. Take a look at the views (all photos from the OH Ranch).
