After being split up into separate parcels, the property, which dates to the 1880s, was pieced back together by its current owners
A Wyoming ranch that once hosted Ernest Hemingway is now selling for $29 million.
The historic Spear Ranch, located in the small town of Big Horn, dates to the 1880s, and is named for the family of cattle ranchers that founded it. The Spear family also opened up a dude ranch, named Spear-O-Wigwam, in the nearby Bighorn Mountains.
Hemingway wrote at least some of his novel “A Farewell to Arms” during a visit to the ranch in 1928.
“It’s so rare. In our business, we love working with buyers who are putting ranches back together,” Widener said. “It’s really fun to be a part of making history come back to life as opposed to splitting ranches up, which we try not to partake in.”
