    Kanye West Sells Wyoming Ranch: See Photos

    Press RoomBy No Comments5 Mins Read

    • Kanye West sold his Wyoming ranch back to its original owners for $16.995 million.
    • West bought the 6,713-acre Bighorn Mountain Ranch in 2019 for $14.495 million.
    • West seems to be done with Wyoming, but he still has another property on the market.

    After years of sitting vacant, rapper Kanye West, who now goes by Ye, sold one of his two Wyoming properties back to its original owners.

    West purchased a 6,713-acre ranch known as Bighorn Mountain Ranch in Greybull, Wyoming, from David and Paula Flitner for $14.495 million in 2019, according to TMZ.

    Wyoming local outlet Cowboy State Daily reported in October that Flitner’s son Greg and his wife, Pam Flitner, bought it back. The sale was notarized in September in Zurich by Bianca Censori, West’s wife, according to Cowboy State Daily. According to the listing, the property sold for $16.995 million.

    “It was not listed publicly at first,” Pam Flitner told Cowboy State Daily. “It was just honestly a fluke that we found out it was listed, and then it was taken down again.”

    While West had grand plans for his Wyoming property and was unable to fully realize them, the Flitners said he didn’t cause much damage to the existing structures. The same can’t be said for his other Wyoming property.

    “He did not knock down — unlike Monster Ranch — he did not knock down any of the buildings,” Pam said. “They may need a little TLC, but they’re all solid. He didn’t go in with a bulldozer and take them down.”

    West’s other Wyoming property, which he bought for $14 million in 2019, according to People, is still on the market for $12 million.

    Here’s a peek inside West’s old Wyoming ranch.

    In 2019, Kanye West bought two properties in Wyoming months apart from each other.

    The first purchase was a 3,885-acre property called the Monster Lake Ranch in Cody, Wyoming, in September 2019. In November of the same year, he purchased Bighorn Mountain Ranch, which he sold in 2025.

    The recently sold ranch sits on 6,713 acres and is located less than 100 miles from the other ranch.

    The 6,700-plus mountain ranch has cabins and lodges, but is highlighted by the surrounding nature.

    Bighorn Mountain Ranch’s listing states the property is “completely surrounded” by Bureau of Land Management and National Forest lands.

    The privacy of the ranch was probably a selling point for West.

    One area of the ranch, The Lodge at Bald Ridge (also known as the “Upper Hideout”), features a log home with five bedrooms and four bathrooms.

    There are also three cabins that sleep up to six guests, with full bathrooms.

    In a separate area, there’s the Snowshoe Lodge, a three-bedroom and three-bath home, and three additional cabins that can fit between two and four people each.

    The three-story main lodge has a wet bar in the basement and an adjoining walk-in sauna that can be used year-round.

    The Snowshoe Lodge also includes a garage for car and ATV storage.

    “Cow Camp,” the final cabin, has a simpler style with fewer bells and whistles — the listing describes it as “a quintessential Wyoming homestead.”

    The Flitner family homesteaded this property in 1906 and originally called it Cow Camp, according to the listing.

    The Flitners leased some of the land for hunting when they owned it.

    The listing estimates that between 1,500 and 2,000 elk use the ranch and nearby property frequently.

    There are also a few creeks that run through the property, offering fishing opportunities.

    The ranch is located in an area known for its natural beauty.

    Situated close to White Creek, the ranch is also near scenic hiking trails, canyons, meadows, and grassy hills.

    West seems to have left his Wyoming dreams behind, as his other property still sits on the market.

    West’s plans for Wyoming were never fully actualized, and it looks like he’s leaving the state, for now. However, the Flitners understand why someone would want to build an oasis away from the spotlight.

    “A lot of people have said he was a really, really good guy,” Greg told Cowboy State Daily. “And that he was really on task a lot of the time. So, none of us can fault him at all for buying it and trying to get something accomplished for himself.”
