Exceptional Hunting Opportunities !!!

Whether you hunt with a camera, gun or bow, few other locations in the country offer the exceptional hunting opportunities available in the Story, Wyoming area.  The lure of this area for the outdoorsman is unsurpassed!  Most of the photos on this page were taken less than an hour from 27 Hosburg Drive via Penrose Trail in Story, using a tree-mounted motion-activated digital camera.

The area offers marvelous hunting opportunities for trophy antelope, mule deer, whitetail deer, moose, elk, black bear, mountain lion, and upland game birds. Outfitters in the area offer guided hunts, or you can choose to go it on your own.  Hunting information is available at local Chambers of Commerce and sporting goods stores.

"OUTDOOR LIFE", A popular sportsman's magazine, recently (June/July 2009 issue) characterized the Sheridan, Wyoming area as a "paradise of the Rocky Mountain West".  They ranked it at #7 of the 200 best towns for sportsmen in the U.S.  Their "OUTDOOR LIFE" report card gave the area an "A" rating for the following categories:  Fishable Species - Huntable Species - Public Land Access - Trophy Potential - and Gun Laws.  Story, Wyoming is located in Sheridan County.

Access to The Big Horn National Forest by way of the Penrose Trail is only five minutes away - the access is literally in your own backyard at 27 Hosburg Drive.

Wyoming has a total land mass area of 97,100 square miles.  50% of that is 48,550 square miles of public land.  That's bigger than each of the entire states of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Mississippi, or Indiana and many, many more.  Much of Wyoming's public land is accessible to hunting.

27 Hosburg Drive is an excellent base for the hunting enthusiast - just minutes away from great hunting opportunities in the Bighorn National Forest, many areas of State of Wyoming and Bureau of Land Management land and private areas with the landowner's permission.

There is no traffic or commute - you can just live, work and play from 27 Hosburg Drive!
