Bar Cross Ranch

Bar Cross Ranch

  • Mirr Ranch Group represented the buyer in the acquisition of the historic Bar Cross Ranch near Pinedale, Wyoming—one of the region’s most storied and operationally significant holdings, encompassing over 12,000 deeded acres, extensive leased lands, and premier access to the Bridger Teton National Forest. Our team brought together in-house expertise and trusted ranch management partners to navigate due diligence with precision and clarity. By resolving these challenges and aligning the asset with a capable steward, we facilitated a streamlined 30-day diligence period and successful closing—demonstrating the value of experienced advisory in unlocking opportunities where others had stalled.

Storied history getting a new chapter.

Caribou Ranch

  • Mirr Ranch Group represented the buyer in the acquisition of the iconic Caribou Ranch, a 1,600-acre legacy holding bordering the Indian Peaks Wilderness just outside Boulder, Colorado. The ranch is renowned for its live water, extensive improvements, and storied history as a recording destination for some of music’s most influential artists. Through disciplined underwriting and strategic negotiation, we advised the buyer to account for future capital expenditures, ultimately securing the ranch at a meaningful discount while structuring terms that allowed the seller to retain a portion of the property and brand rights—aligning both parties and positioning the ranch for its next chapter under capable ownership. 

Note from the broker

  • “In 2014 we were fortunate to represent the buyer in the acquisition of the iconic Caribou Ranch in Boulder County. The buyer was committed to ensuring the enduring legacies of both the property’s natural resources and the ranch’s storied history as a former mining town and world class recording studio.”

Lone Tree Ranch

Lonetree Ranch

  • The Lonetree Ranch encompasses approximately 4,895 acres of deeded land + 960 acres of Wyoming State land + 5,245 acres of BLM land + 16,600 acres of USFS land for a total of about 27,700 acres. This historic ranch for sale was founded in 1918 and is one of Wyoming’s most admired operations. It possesses extraordinary territorial and adjudicated water rights irrigating over 2,400 acres. Mule deer, elk, moose, and antelope are seen in good numbers. The ranch controls miles on the Henrys Fork River and three live creeks rich in trout habitat. The Ranch will carry 425 to 500 head of cattle year-round. Situated only two hours from Salt Lake City, Utah, and just an hour from Evanston’s jet-capable airport. No personal state income tax in Wyoming, plus very low real estate taxes, are attractive financial considerations. Here is that rare combination of great fly-fishing and hunting resources alongside an authentic cattle operation.

Note from the broker

  • “I searched several states for a dear friend and client for several months. I noticed that the Lonetree had recently just come back on the market, and while it was not in our original preferred area, our evaluation indicated it met many of our objectives. The Lonetree is a magical place with beautiful tree-lined meadows, senior water rights, adjacency to BLM and National Forest with large grazing permits, and backed up to the Unita Mountains, the highest range in the United States running east to west, and just 100 miles from Salt Lake City.”

Twelve ranch properties for long-term stewardship.

Fly Fishing Ranch

Fly Fishing Buyer Ranch

  • In 2024, Mirr Ranch Group advised a single buyer through the strategic acquisition of twelve ranch properties across the Intermountain West—each anchored by meaningful live water and strong recreational and investment attributes. The portfolio included notable holdings along the Colorado River, Tarryall Creek, and the North Platte River, among others, reflecting a deliberate focus on premier fisheries and water-driven value. Executing this volume of transactions within a single year required disciplined sourcing, coordinated due diligence, and a clear understanding of the buyer’s long-term vision—demonstrating our role as a trusted advisory partner in assembling a cohesive, water-centric ranch portfolio aligned with both lifestyle objectives and long-term stewardship.

Note from the broker

  • “Working with this client was unique due to the scale and pace of acquiring a dozen premier fishing properties across the western United States in under a year. Our strategic partnerships and team-focused model enabled concurrent due diligence and efficient closings across multiple transactions. Combined with our expertise in sporting properties and the client’s buying power, we created strong negotiating leverage that delivered exceptional value.” –
