Irrigation Systems
A great addition to the Fiddleback Ranch is the 240 acres of alpha/grass hay meadows which are irrigated by 4 circular pivots. After the pivots were installed, hay production increased dramatically as time and labor was cut in half. There are two reservoirs on the ranch that go along with the water rights from the Greybull River and Upper Sunshine Reservoir. Three of the four pivots are controlled in an enclosed pump house where the water is supplied from either reservoir or directly from the river. The remaining pivot is gravity fed from the upper local reservoir. There is an additional 150 acres of ground that is irrigated through hand sprinkler systems or ditches.
