Property Description
For the mule deer hunter, the location adds another layer to the opportunity. The property lies within Wyoming's Region T for nonresident mule deer hunters and within a general-license hunt area for Wyoming residents. Combined with the caliber and consistency of mule deer utilizing the property, this puts Whalen Canyon Trophy Acreage squarely in the kind of country serious western hunters look for--a place where quality deer aren't just part of the story, they're regularly seen right outside the back door. Coupled with quality mule deer, a 900 yard shooting range sits on the NE side of the property. Flat, open ground stretches to 200 yards before climbing into a natural butte, offering shooting opportunities clear out to 900 yards.
The habitat here didn't happen by accident. Over the years, approximately 600 trees have been planted across the property and are supported by an established four-system drip irrigation setup. Aspen, blue spruce, bur oak, honey locust, Autumn Blaze maple, cottonwood, Austrian and ponderosa pine, Rocky Mountain juniper, and cedar combine to create a diverse mix of cover, shelter, and habitat across the acreage. The result is the kind of environment Wyoming wildlife gravitates toward. Mule deer call it home, turkeys are regular company, and the property has been deliberately improved with wildlife and the land in mind.
At the heart of the acreage sits a 1,944-square-foot, four-bedroom, two-bath home, giving the next owner a comfortable headquarters in the middle of it all. Newer windows have been installed within the past few years, and water is supplied by an exceptional well producing approximately 25 GPM--a serious asset anywhere in Wyoming. Whether this becomes a full-time residence, hunting headquarters, or a western retreat, the improvements are already in place to make the property usable from day one.
Outside, a 30'×40' shop provides room to work, store equipment, and keep the gear that comes with owning Wyoming acreage organized. Multiple work areas and built-in shelving provide functional storage throughout the shop, while an additional Conex shipping container adds even more secure storage outside. From hunting gear and side-by-sides to tools and equipment, there is room here for the things that make a property like this work.
The property adjoins land associated with the historic Sunrise mining area, a landscape with an archaeological story stretching back thousands of years. The greater Sunrise area is nationally significant for evidence of prehistoric mining activity, and the history isn't merely distant from this property. Arrowheads, stone chippings, and other artifacts have reportedly been found on the acreage, tangible reminders of the people who occupied and worked this country long before modern Wyoming existed. That history deserves respect, and it gives this property a character that simply cannot be manufactured or recreated.
