Big game hunting or ju 
Boating, water skiing, sailing, and great lake fishing is available on
Ruby Reservoir just 18 miles south where a busy day, like July 4, might
have two or three boats! And one of our ranches, the exquisite
Ruby Lake Ranch, controls miles of the western shoreline of that pristine
water body. Just an hour away is mighty Clark Canyon Reservoir,
another boating paradise.
River drifting opportunities within a stone's throw of Sheridan would keep the most ardent drift boaters/rafter awestruck for many a summer. This is horse and cowboy country. Hundreds upon hundreds
of miles of trails, devoid of people, beckon the horseman and the open,
rolling foothills leading up to the big peaks can give years of riding
enjoyment without ever riding the same trail twice! Waterfowling for both ducks and geese is absolutely exceptional. Sheridan lies in the middle of the Pacific Fly Way and the myriad of rivers, ponds, and warm water sloughs in the area attract ducks and geese by the thousands, indeed the tens of thousands, in the fall and early winter. Bird watchers can delight in over 100 species of songbirds, countless raptors including golden and bald eagles, great horned owls, and virtually every Rocky Mountain hawk known to man!
