Fishing
The Little Snake River begins at the confluence
of three streams, the North Fork, Middle Fork and South
Fork. Day trips to these high mountain streams are popular
in both Colorado and Wyoming.
The Little Snake River runs through the ranch
for about two miles and the trout fishing is excellent early
and late. A large snow pack extends the fishing season.
The streams are ideal for fly fishing, although the fish
are not fussy about the kind of rod used. There are two
large lakes within 25 miles.
Hiking
At Focus Ranch, guests enjoy the many opportunities
to hike the trails either on the ranch or in the national
forests, Medicine Bow (Wyoming) and Routt (Colorado). There
are easy, short hikes along the Little Snake River or up
Spring Creek. Those who want distance can hike for miles
on public land.Focus Ranch headquarters are at about 7000
ft. in elevation. Mountains surround the valley and are
a great opportunity for climbing. A favorite one of our
guests is Sheep Mountain, about 8300 ft. The view it offers
is spectacular. Other mountains in the area are Battle Mt.
and Hahns Peak.
Mountain Biking
Several of our guests choose to occasionally ride a
bike rather than a horse. Mountain bikers make use of the
existing trails and roads to enjoy the scenery minus interruptions
from motorized vehicles.
