WELCOME
The CM Ranch is situated in a peaceful, secluded
valley at the mouth of Jakey’s Fork Canyon in the Wind
River Mountains. Listed with the National Register of Historic
Places, the CM has specialized in family vacations since 1927.
It is one of the two oldest dude ranches in Wyoming, with a
fine reputation. The ranch is not just a group of buildings
set up for summer use, but a welcoming home, with atmosphere
and charm. The expansive ranch lands are contiguous with the
Shoshone National Forest and Fitzpatrick Wilderness, which means
almost endless private riding and fishing country of great variety
and beauty.

During the day you can ride, fish, hike, swim,
picnic, participate in activities, or relax with your book,
as you please. Evenings can be spent with others at square
dances or cookouts, playing softball, horseshoes or volleyball
on the lawn, or ping pong and card games. Each week there
is a slide show by a visiting photographer, and an evening
of cowboy poetry and music. Perhaps you would like to join
friends on a cabin porch for conversation and star-gazing.
And there is always the quiet seclusion of your cabin, to
enjoy.
The CM is friendly and informal. The size is
ideal, as there are always several age groups, assuring congenial
companionship for all. It is a relaxing place to bring your
family or friends, and spend time with them in simple outdoor
activities. The employees are seasoned ranch hands and attractive
college students from all over the United States, and they are
encouraged to participate in all aspects of ranch life. Everyone
is welcome at the CM; families, groups, reunions, couples, and
singles. All will get to know each other very easily and find
themselves engaging in activities together. |
