If you are seeking a pristine setting, complete solitude, or possibly a simpler way of life, fully complimented with abundant wildlife, dramatic mountain views, and endless recreational opportunities – look no further.
The eastern slope of Beartooth Mountains provide the spectacular backdrop for the offered parcels. Hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreational opportunities are truly unlimited within the 944,000 acres of the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness. The Wilderness Area borders the 2.4 million-acre Shoshone National Forest (the nation’s 1st National Forest in 1891;originally the Yellowstone Timberland Reserve), along with State and BLM administered lands of varied terrain.
Clark, Wyoming is best described as a virtually unchanged piece of the “great western frontier”, situated along Wyoming‘s Highway 120, in Northwest Wyoming, 30 miles north of Historic Cody, Wyoming, in Park County. Clark is unincorporated, and has no specific central “town site” per se, or town services. It is included in the Powell Zip Code, approximately 30 miles away. There is an elementary school in Clark, which is part of Park County School District #1 (Powell), and most junior high and high school students bus to Powell or Belfry, Montana. Red Lodge, Montana and the Red Lodge Mountain Ski Resort and Red Lodge Golf Course are about a 30 minute drive. Billings, Montana is about 1 ½ hours away.
The roughly 300 full-time residents (who share approximately 50 square miles), are a mix of farmers, ranchers, and retirees who come to the area for the peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Otherwise, those working generally commute to Powell or Cody.
Winters are moderately mild, with elevation averages of approximately 4,500 feet. The area is semi-arid high desert sagebrush plains with an average of less than 10” rain or snowfall per year. It was a wintering area for Indian tribes in the 19th century, due to the milder temperatures, relative lack of snow, abundant sunshine and game animals.

Wyoming offers many fishing, hunting, and outdoor recreational opportunities. The Clarks Fork River is no exception when it comes to being “Wild and Scenic”. As a glacier-fed Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone it has its beginnings in the Absaroka and Beartooth mountains near Cooke City, MT. About 10-12 miles downstream from Cook City, it enters into Wyoming. From this point, the Clarks Fork takes a 40 mile journey through the Cowboy State before it once again crosses into the state line of Montana.
Due to its size it is unsuitable for drift boats or rafts, but it can be normally fished without a guide. The river flows through some of the most breathtaking country. Fishing on the Clarks Fork is best from August to September for fly fishing enthusiasts.
“ The West of the old times, with its strong characters, its stern battles, and its tremendous stretches of loneliness, can never be blotted from my mind.”
