The Lazy K Ranch, located in Carbon County, Wyoming surrounding the east side of Encampment, is home to trophy populations of mule deer and antelope as well as elk, Bighorn sheep, upland birds and a variety of fish species.

The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission has purchased the Ellis Sheep Company Ranch to manage as a wildlife habitat management area. This will allow the G&F to expand access to the public for hunting and fishing in Johnson and Washakie Counties.

These programs will help landowners preserve and maintain habitat across private Wyoming lands to benefit wildlife populations.

Habitat preservation and enhancement play an extremely important role both globally and locally.

Surrounding the incorporated town of Encampment, WY to the north, south and west, the Lazy K Ranch consists of 3,100 +/- deeded acres benefitted by additional lease acres along the slopes of the Sierra Madre Mountains.

Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 exchanges are arguably one of the most powerful tools one can use when selling or purchasing land.

If you are thinking about buying hunting property, then purchasing a ranch may be your best investment.
