Mill Iron 4 Mill Iron Ranch (MI4MI) is comprised of 855 fenced acres (100 Deeded/755 BLM lease) and is located 6.1 miles outside historic Dubois, WY. It is an exceptional example of what western living has to offer–open space nestled between the Wind River and Absaroka Mountain Ranges, abundant wildlife and big game species, geological and archaeological treasures, surrounded by Shoshone National Forest and wilderness areas and their numerous lakes, rivers, trophy fishing, and year round recreational opportunities, and topped off by close proximity to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.
The MI4MI Ranch is steeped in American history and legends, famous and infamous. Once home to dinosaurs, it became a wildlife migration route, later, the warm wintering grounds for the Shoshone Indians, and, eventually, the homestead of rancher/lawman, Hank Boedeker, of Butch Cassidy fame. Other ranchers in the area have included such notables as the Disneys, the Maytags, the Schwinns and the DuPonts. MI4MI (2006) embraces the natural splendor and ruggedness of its past along with very upscale conveniences making it a truly special place to enjoy life.
The ranch improvements exemplify western practicality and luxury. All buildings are in excellent condition. The log main house is custom throughout. This three bedroom, two bath home has 1,882/889 sq. ft. of indoor/outdoor living area, a gourmet kitchen, living/dining room with a granite/burl-trimmed gas fireplace, entry hall, well-equipped, versatile utility room, and a hot tub with private deck.
