Property Description
177 Acres of Hunting & Recreational Parcel – Converse/Albany County, WY This 177-acre tract is located off Old Fort Fetterman Road in the southern Converse and northeastern Albany County region of Wyoming, positioned south of Douglas and northeast of Rock River. It presents a rare opportunity for those seeking expansive acreage with exceptional hunting and recreational potential in an area known for its vast public lands and abundant wildlife populations. The property offers both the solitude of rural Wyoming and proximity to key outdoor recreation destinations, making it ideal for sportsmen, investors, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Access to the property is legally established with recorded ingress and egress. The surrounding area is characterized by wide-open landscapes, large private ranches, and nearby public land. Douglas, Wyoming, serves as the nearest primary service hub approximately 45 miles to the north, while the small town of Rock River is located about 53 miles to the southwest. Because the property spans a portion of the county line, it benefits from the unique attributes of both Converse and Albany counties. The terrain features rolling hills and natural drainage channels, creating an appealing and varied landscape that reflects the character of Wyoming's high plains. A spring-fed pond provides a reliable, year-round water source and serves as an important ecological feature that attracts wildlife. Approximately 50 percent of the property boundary is already fenced, offering defined borders while still allowing for wildlife movement through the unfenced portions. This parcel is situated adjacent to or within reach of state and public lands associated with Elk Unit 7, Antelope Unit 42, and Deer Unit 64—game management areas well known for supporting healthy populations of elk, deer, and pronghorn. The property's proximity to both BLM and national forest lands enhances its recreational potential, creating opportunities for hunting, wildlife observation, hiking, and backcountry exploration. Because it borders public land, the acreage can serve as an excellent basecamp or staging point for hunting trips, with easy access to surrounding terrain during the season. The property currently has no utility services, offering buyers a clean slate to develop an off-grid retreat. Solar power, wind energy, or generator systems would be practical solutions for those seeking self-sufficiency. There are no structural improvements or developed roads within the parcel, meaning new owners may wish to create internal trails or clearings to improve accessibility. With its size, location, and natural resources, this acreage lends itself to a range of uses. It could be developed as a private hunting retreat, a recreational getaway, or a long-term land investment. Buyers should be prepared to work with county and state authorities if they plan to build structures such as cabins, blinds, or game processing areas, as permitting may be required. Its remote character offers true privacy, while the relative proximity to Douglas and Rock River ensures convenient access to supplies and services when needed. Nearby points of interest include Douglas, Wyoming (approximately 45 miles), Rock River (approximately 53 miles), Fort Fetterman State Historic Site located about 11 miles northwest of Douglas, and Orpha, Wyoming, roughly 9 miles northwest of Douglas.
