WHAT IS THE FLYING X RANCH AND WHAT AM I BUYING?  

The Flying X Ranch is a huge recreation ranch, 23,800 acres in the southeast corner of Wyoming.  Of the nearly 24,000 acres, 18,000 is deeded and 5,800 is BLM leased acres.   It is owned and run by a Limited Partnership of 311 partners.  This is NOT a timeshare!  This is an investment in a vacation of a lifetime.  It is an opportunity to purchase full use partnership of a private "dude" ranch / sportsman paradise without closing costs, processing fees, lawyers, or realtors.  There is a simple process of transfer of partnership certificate and approval of the board of directors.  This ranch is for the sole use and enjoyment of its partners and their guests; it is NOT open to or will ever be available to the public.  The goal of the partnership will never be the selling of the ranch for profit or for development.  The purpose is to provide a private retreat for people that enjoy horseback riding, fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, or that just love the outdoors and want to preserve a large section of nature's beauty.  This truly a step back to the Old West and will remain that way forever.  All partnership shares are owned privately and you are bidding on one of these shares from a partner.  This is one full share of the 311 owner and voting shares of the Flying X Ranch limited partnership.  At this time there are around 260 owners because some families own several shares.  Of these owners, many have bought shares as an investment and do not visit the ranch.  The ranch will NEVER be crowded or overrun with people. 

Where else can you provide recreation and freedom for your children away from the dangers of today's urban settings?  This has been and will continue to be the finest places to raise your children with the adventure of the outdoors and respect for its preservation.

HISTORY OR THE FLYING X RANCH

The Flying X Ranch is an exclusive, privately owned ranch set in the scenic Laramie Mountains and is maintained to accommodate the recreational needs of its partners. The ranch was originally part of the McGill Ranch, homesteaded in the 19th century. Several old homestead sites and the ruins of a one-room school are still visible, and a number of teepee rings mark the campsites of earlier inhabitants.  The US cavalry frequently crossed the original ranch, using the historic Guide Rock as a landmark.  The Ranch was purchased from the McGill family in 1973 and the Flying X Ranch was born.  The ranch currently has a full time professional management team and seasonal and part-time help as required.  The kitchen is open on weekends during the summer/fall season and other times upon special request with meals served at a nominal fee.  In addition to normal maintenance and upkeep the ranch maintains its own horse herd and regularly stocks the lakes with trout.  Fishing has been superb and in 1990 a 10 lb. 4 oz., 31" Rainbow trout was caught.  You may also board your own horses at attractive rates.

 

WHERE IS THE RANCH?

The ranch is located 184 miles north of Denver, 92 miles from Cheyenne and about 30 miles southwest of Wheatland, Wyoming.  Wheatland and Laramie are the closest towns providing medical, shopping and other needs. Denver, Cheyenne and Casper offer commercial air service.  It is located in the Laramie Mountains at an elevation of between 6,100 and 7.400 feet.
