Laurel Leaf Land Co offers exclusive access to our rugged ranchland in northeast Wyoming's Campbell County. Located in Unit 129 for elk, the ranch is a solid option for hunters. No deer hunting at this time due to low numbers over the past couple years.

About the Ranch:

This homesteaded property dating back to the early 1900s, stewarded currently by three generations of our family, is made up of open pasture, sagebrush steppe, creek bottoms, and rough timber breaks. We are a working cow/calf operation rooted in regenerative practices. A byproduct of our regenerative efforts is a diverse and bountiful wildlife population.

Wildlife moves naturally through the ranch, where multiple creek bottoms and a network of 20 wells, pipelines, and reservoirs provide consistent water sources throughout the year. Elk pass through timbered ridges and shelter in the broken draws. Turkeys work the edges of wooded areas near water. Seasonal waterfowl show up when conditions are right.

NOTE ON ELK HUNTING IN WY UNIT 129: Unit 129 is largely private land for DIY hunters (a good thing if you have several thousands of acres like we do 😉). My brother, a nonresident hunter, has been able to successfully apply and draw a tag for the past 3 years with no points. Our elk population and acreage make this unit a good draw option for nonresidents!

NOTE ON TURKEY NUMBERS/SUCCESS: We live about 20 minutes from where the best bird habitat is, so I'm not able to tell exactly how numbers are doing. That said, about 2 out 3 times we go up to where the turkeys are, we see several birds. Our 2024 spring turkey season had a 75% success rate, 3 out of 4 hunters harvested.

As an on-site lodging option, our family's rustic 1950s-era cabin is available. Recently updated but intentionally off-grid, the cabin has four rooms, a woodstove kitchen, sleeps up to 8 in 6 beds, a modern outhouse, propane (included) grill, and an outdoor firepit equipped for campfire cooking. 

When you're not hunting, the land can be used for stargazing, mountain biking, or hiking among the breaks—tent camping and summer cabin use offer additional ways to soak in the Wyoming scenery.

From our family to yours, welcome to Laurel Leaf Land Co!
