2022 Idaho Range Tour

Join the Idaho Wool Growers Association as we go East to St. Anthony for the 2022 Range Tour hosted by the Siddoway Sheep Company at their Juniper Mountain Ranch. 

In 1886 the Siddoway family began a sheep business in Eastern Idaho that has transcended through six generations. In 2003, Juniper Mountain Ranch, an elk and bison hunting preserve, was established by Jeff Siddoway. Jeff, a fourth-generation sheep rancher decided to diversify the family business to include elk and bison in addition to running one of the largest range sheep operations in the west. Although the elk and bison are a relatively new addition to our ranch the Siddoway’s have been raising livestock for well over a century.

Jeff and Cindy and their son J.C. are all actively involved in Siddoway Sheep Company and Juniper Mountain Elk Ranch. Cindy and daughters; Billie, Jodie, and daughter-in-law, Braidyn also own Siddoway Wool Company which produces beautiful wool blankets from the sheep’s wool.

They currently operate the ranch much the same as their forefathers. The sheep continue to winter in the big desert and migrate to high summer pastures from near Jackson, Wyoming south to Swan Valley, Idaho. The horses still pasture north of the St. Anthony sand dunes where they have added elk and bison on nearly 12,000 acres of their Juniper Mountain land.
