PROPERTY DESCRIPTION



 

Tucked along the Bighorn River corridor just north of Thermopolis, Wyoming, Parcel #1 offers 35.38 acres of native wetland and riparian habitat in one of the most scenic river valleys in the Intermountain West. This is a property for the buyer who understands what undisturbed land means — and what it's worth.


The parcel is dominated by native wetland vegetation, seasonal ponds, and riparian cover that create a natural sanctuary for migratory waterfowl, white-tailed and mule deer, and diverse wildlife throughout the seasons. A 5± acre building envelope provides a defined homesite with open views across the wetlands and surrounding mesa and canyon country — a blank canvas for a cabin, recreational retreat, or conservation holding.
