FAMILY OWNED RANCH
Welcome to Fish & Cross Ranch, a century-old working cattle ranch nestled in the heart of Yampa, Colorado, where cowboy traditions and Western hospitality are alive and well. Set across 4,040 private acres and backed by 96,000 leased acres, this land is home to world-class hunting, fishing, and horseback riding.
