The Old Pitchfork Ranch

A Living Chapter of Wyoming’s Ranching Heritage
For nearly 150 years, this ranch has stood at the heart of Wyoming’s ranching story. Known today as Old Pitchfork Ranch, it was the original headquarters of Count Otto Franc von Lichtenstein, the German-born cattleman who established the Pitchfork Ranch in 1878—one of the earliest and most iconic cattle operations in the Big Horn Basin.

Here, history is not only preserved, it is lived. Franc’s adobe residence, believed to be among the oldest standing structures in the region, once housed the first U.S. Post Office in the Basin and served as a gathering point for early settlers. Franc himself lived and worked within these walls, anchoring what became one of Wyoming’s most legendary ranching enterprises.
