Offering miles of unmatched trout streams, soaring mountain tops, and limitless acres of Aspen covered meadows; this magical playground offers more activities than a day can hold. The Roaring Fork Spa, nestled within The Lodge at Three Forks Ranch, is a focal point of complete rejuvenation for guests seeking a special kind of ranch vacation.
Over The Rainbows: My Three Forks guide taught me more about fly-fishing in one day than all the other guides I have fished with combined. With his help, I caught and released a dozen rainbow trout along various stretches of the Little Snake River, 16 miles of which run through this 200,000-acre working cattle ranch.

Where the Three Forks skiing and snowboarding experience will really stand out is when guests climb inside one of the ranch’s snowcats and head out to the backcountry. The specially designed vehicles are built to travel through the deepest snows, and can provide access to places that no chair lift ever could. Skiers will be able to shred untouched powder in a pristine wilderness that will make them feel like they’re the first ones to ever visit the area, providing a magical ski experience that is unlike any other.
In 1862, Joseph Hahn and two companions struck gold in the vicinity of Hahns Peak just north of Steamboat Springs. Over a century later, David Pratt, owner of Three Forks Ranch, has struck gold in the form of the fly-fisherman’s nirvana by restoring 22 miles of three rivers that now teem with Donaldson and Kamloops Rainbows measuring over 30 inches.
Three Forks Ranch and the cat skiing they have will provide skiers that visit this valley some of the most amazing and unique opportunities available anywhere in this country or North America for that matter. They have endless terrain — more legit than Steamboat Powder Cats terrain and amenities by far. They also have the benefit of being a 230,000 acre private ranch and have a base lodge that would take most people’s breath away.
Twenty maintained trails on privately owned ski hills accessed only by snowcat — I’d call it the best private snowcat skiing west of the Rockies. No lift lines... no crowds... just you and the hill — and if you’re lucky like my family was with some cooperation from Mother Nature, perhaps more than a foot of freshly fallen snow.
Think of a snowcat as your personal ski butler—one that comes with a massive snowplow, all-terrain treads and/or bench seating for six. One is there to taxi you up 1,100 vertical feet of gladed mountain face. And another’s there to smooth out up to 20 untouched, private runs in the Sierra Madre, before you grace them with your descent. (You’ll carve these green-, blue- and black-diamond trails almost completely at your leisure, since the hotel caps capacity at a lean 30.)
Two hundred thousand acres. A working cattle ranch near the border of Wyoming and Colorado, owned by St. Louis Cardinals co-owner David Pratt. The Three Forks Ranch puts the ‘X’ in extreme luxury.
Unlimited Private Snowcat Skiing at Three Forks Ranch: With all due respect to Mr. Disney, the happiest place on Earth isn’t in Orlando or Anaheim. It’s deep in the Sierra Madre on the Colorado-Wyoming border where the North, South and Middle Fork Rivers meet to give this 200,000-acre working cattle ranch and four-season playground its name.
Your Private Mountain Now Has Snow: The 200,000-acre resort (just 40mi north of Steamboat on the CO/WY border) has crafted twenty beautiful beginner-to-expert runs which are 1) only accessible by Snowcat (they have four), and 2) only available to guests of their 15 rooms, meaning you’ll be able to really stretch out on the trail (note: stretching out before the trail is also a good idea).
#1 Luxurious Hunting Lodge: Open fireplaces, plaid armchairs, beamed cathedral ceilings, hand-carved European paneling and stone walls; what more could you want from a luxurious hunting lodge?
The striking 15-room structure can accommodate as many as 30 visitors and features 40-foot-high cathedral ceilings, museum-quality Western artworks, and nine fireplaces throughout the public spaces.
Luxe Way: Three Forks Ranch: Most visitors—about 30 at a time, maximum—come to fish. A mobile kitchen meets anglers to serve them lunches like grilled flatiron steak; at dinner, guests can choose from cult Napa bottlings like Opus One and Caymus.
The Best Hunting and Fishing Lodges: Intended to be the “Ritz-Carlton of the backcountry,” the sprawling lodge includes a 6,000-foot spa, an indoor/outdoor infinity pool overlooking aspen-covered hills, and a variety of guest rooms and suites.
Cast Away: Catching more trees than trout? Splurge on a trip to Three Forks Ranch, a Kansas City-size cattle ranch and fishing resort 40 miles north. The river is a little manicured, but there’s 16 miles of restored private water. The fish are wise as mules, and nearly as fat.
Our Seven Favorite Guest Ranches: Whether you’re out to ride, fish, soak in a hot spring, pitch in on chores or get treated to a farm-to-table feast, you’ll be able to find your home on the range.
