Raised on a ranch south of Buffalo, Mike became passionate about agriculture and the outdoors at an early age. He worked in many facets of the operation, including farming and irrigation, commercial hay production, and cattle raising. Today, he enjoys sharing his heritage with his family. Mike graduated from Texas Tech University in 1994. Soon after graduation, the call of the Rocky Mountains brought Mike back to Wyoming as an agriculture instructor in Meeteetse, Wyoming. His entrepreneurial nature soon led Mike to own and run a commercial weed spraying and range management business. Returning to Buffalo in 1999, he bought a Farm Bureau Financial Services office. After a successful ten years in the insurance business, Mike’s love of the land caused him to turn his attention to the ranch brokerage business. It was a natural fit for Mike, and he quickly established himself as one of the top ranch brokers in Wyoming.

On the eastern edge of the Wyoming Black Hills, just 17 miles northwest of Spearfish and four miles north of Interstate 90, the Mullenger Ranch is a great opportunity to own a Black Hills ranch with significant recreational appeal. Encompassing approximately 1,000± deeded acres and surrounded by expansive neighboring holdings, the ranch offers remarkable privacy and seclusion. The landscape varies throughout with rimrocks, high plateau ridges, and deep timbered canyons. Tucked in the valley floor, on the northern reaches of the ranch, is a rustic, yet functional “homesteaders” cabin that blends in well with the timbered landscape. Located on a spring-fed draw, the cabin is an old “homestead” built on an ideal site with water, shelter from the elements, and strategically located for seeing wildlife and game. Mullenger Ranch provides both sweeping views and private canyons, blending for exceptional wildlife habitat. The varying topography provides numerous build sites for a custom home or secluded mountain retreat. Deep, timber-lined canyons shaded by Ponderosa pines and oak trees conceal natural springs and ponds, while an artesian-fed pipeline delivers water to improved tanks for livestock and game alike. The ranch supports a rich wildlife population, including elk, mule deer, whitetail deer, turkey, bald and golden eagles, falcons, hawks, owls, bobcats, and mountain lions.
Carefully managed and thoughtfully preserved, Mullenger Ranch is a standout recreational retreat with excellent wildlife resources and solid grazing for livestock. For a larger option, the neighboring Riley Ranch is offered for sale and can be purchased separately or independently.
