Paint Rock Canyon Enterprises is the current operating name for one of
Wyoming’s most notable ranches, The Hyatt Ranch. The ranch is currently
owned by John and Carolyn Alm, who strive to raise quality Angus cattle and
Quarter Horses as did Sam Hyatt, the original founder. Founded in 1886, the
ranch is located just outside of Hyattville, Wyoming at the mouth of Paint Rock
Canyon in the western foothills of the Big Horn Mountains.
Much of the grazing for their 1,500 head cow-calf operation is done in high
desert and Forest Service pastures. Paint Rock Canyon also started a ranch and
farm intern program in 1999 to give college-aged youth interested in agriculture
an opportunity to gain experience working on a cattle ranch. The product of
these two needs became a full-blown horse breeding program. The ranch focuses
on raising athletic, versatile, conformationally correct American Quarter Horses
with willing dispositions.
Paint Rock Canyon Enterprises is also home to a summer camp program
for high potential, economically disadvantaged youth from Los Angeles. The
ranch sponsors 72 children each summer who are part of a 4-year high school
program. A key part of the camp experience is their horseback riding program,
which employs their very own ranch raised and trained remuda.
