A Rancher's Commitment to Wyoming
Allen Hogg, 66, is a third-generation rancher who has worked the Upper Greybull River country his entire life. He operates the Hogg Ranch near Meeteetse — land his family has worked since 1918. Allen grew up in the Basin, earned his degree from Northwest College, and spent a brief couple of years in Hot Springs County, where he worked on a workover rig while providing for his young family, before returning to the land full-time.
He and his wife Kristine have been married 45 years and have raised three sons, one of whom still works the ranch alongside him. When he's not managing cattle, you'll find him hunting elk, deer, and birds across the country he's known since childhood, or throwing flies into the Greybull River that runs through the family property.
Allen brings more than two decades of public service to the race. As Vice-Chairman of the Park County Fair Board, he steered the fair toward self-sufficiency during severe funding cuts — growing attendance and revenue without putting the entire bill on taxpayers. As Treasurer of the Park County Predator Board, he helped secure state funding for programs protecting both livestock and Wyoming's wildlife habitat. He is a former President of the Wyoming State Association of County Fairs, a life member of 4-H and FFA, and has worked alongside researchers from across the country to ensure that landowner reality — not just academic theory — shapes wildlife management decisions in House District 28.
Why He's Running
"I'm running because I've spent my whole life in this Basin and I've watched what happens when Cheyenne stops listening to the people actually living here. Our roads, our schools, our local boards — these things matter. My neighbors matter. That's not politics. That's just how I was raised."
In Wyoming, we value our independence, but we also value the local services that keep our communities running — our roads, our schools, and our libraries. Allen is running to make sure those services are protected by practical conservation leadership, not sidelined by ideological distractions.
His platform prioritizes results over political theater. His goals include protecting the longstanding partnerships between ranchers and public lands, securing necessary state funding for district infrastructure, and ensuring that local boards — not state-level mandates — maintain control over our schools and libraries.
