Located in Albany County just on the outskirts of Rock River Wyoming, the Three Quarter Box C Ranch is a true working Wyoming Cattle Ranch. Sprawling over 12,000 +\- Acres, with 8780 +\- deeded, and the remainder split between State and BLM lease, elevations range between 6700 feet along Rock Creek to 7400 feet up on the high plateaus on the range. The ranch has water rights, meadows, pastures and rangeland that is conducive for anything from cattle to big game. it is just 15 minutes between two mountain ranges, the Laramie Mountains to the east and the Snowy Range Mountains to the west, and about 30 minutes north of Laramie Wyoming.
Although ownership and boundaries have changed throughout the years, the ranch can be dated back to 1885 with the original log constructed homestead headquarters, stock and hay barns, all being built in 1900. The barn carvings show the history of frontier settlers and real Wyoming Cowboys, back to the days when the infamous Tom Horn rode the range and worked the Laramie area as a stock detective. He met his controversial demise at the gallows in Cheyenne in 1903.
In the past, the ranch has been used for sheep, cattle and horses. It has been reported that in the 1920s and 1930s the property was used almost exclusively as a horse ranch and later was home to a commercially registered angus herd.
