Born into a 4th generation agricultural family, Matt grew up in the agricultural belt of the Midwest. Some of his earliest memories are of riding in tractors and exploring the vast crop fields on his family’s farm. Matt was involved in 4-H and learned the definition of hard work at an early age.

After graduating college, Matt and his wife, Chelsea, moved to Alaska where he worked for 10 years as a high school teacher and backcountry hunting and fishing guide where he navigated some of the Alaska's most remote regions via jet boat and floatplane.

Since stepping away from guiding, Matt has had a successful real estate career, brokering several hundred million dollars of ranch, recreational property, and lodge sales, including over $100 million dollars of sales in 2024 and 2025.

Matt thrives on putting together complex transactions, often involving significant lifestyle changes, multiple properties, large businesses, tax management strategies, and legacy planning. Whether buying or selling, Matt works tirelessly from the initial meeting to the closing table to put his clients in the best position possible to achieve their goals.

Matt and his wife, Chelsea, currently reside in Sheridan, Wyoming with their daughter, dogs, and horses. In his free time, you will either find Matt recreating in the backcountry of Alaska or throughout the Rocky Mountain West targeting trout with his fly rod, slipping through the aspens in pursuit of an early morning elk bugle, or roaming the prairie with his dogs in search of the next flush.

Kerry Powers was raised between a remote village in Alaska and his family’s centennial ranch in Wheatland, Wyoming, immersed in a sixth-generation legacy of ranching and lodge ownership. From an early age, he learned the Code of the West not as a philosophy, but as a way of life forged through long days fixing fence, working cattle, and learning firsthand what it takes to support rural operations that depend on consistency and hard work.

His upbringing was rooted in both land and water. In Alaska, Kerry spent his youth around remote lodge operations, gaining firsthand exposure to what it takes to build, maintain, and operate successful wilderness businesses. In Wyoming, he worked alongside his family on the ranch, developing a deep understanding of land stewardship, livestock operations, and the realities of Western living.

After graduating from the United States Air Force Academy with a degree in Economics, Kerry served as an Aircraft Maintenance Officer and Acquisitions Officer, leading high-performing teams and managing complex, high-value assets.

Today, Kerry specializes in the brokerage of ranches, recreational properties, and remote lodges, bringing a rare combination of operational experience and transactional expertise. Having lived the lifestyle his clients are buying into, he understands that these properties are more than real estate—they are businesses, legacies, and long-term investments.

Kerry is known for navigating complex deals involving multiple properties, operational components, and strategic planning considerations. Whether representing buyers or sellers, he approaches every transaction with a focus on positioning his clients for long term legacy—not just at closing, but for years beyond it.

Based in Sheridan, Kerry continues to spend time across the Rocky Mountain West and Alaska. When he’s not working on behalf of his clients, you’ll find him in the backcountry,whether that’s chasing fish in remote Alaskan waters, riding through Wyoming’s high country, or carrying forward the lifestyle he was raised in.

Kerry is the founding owner of Squaw Mountain Consulting, LLC.    Kerry has been committed to improving farm and range land since receiving his Bachelors in Forestry, Outdoor Recreation, and Resource Managment from Colorado State University.   He has worked with numerous boards, commissions, and producers to pioneer effective resource conservation practices.  His knowledge of soil and range composition and how to maximize a property through sound management practices is unparalleled.    He has worked in both the private and public sector in nearly every aspect of land ownership:  •NRCS District Conservationist   •Wyoming Game and Fish Commissioner  •Chairman Platte County Conservation District  •Wyoming Animal Damage Management Board  •Right of Way Agent for Union Pacific Railroad •Past Owner-Broker Cedardale Properties, LLC   •Wyoming Stock Growers Association.

Kerry was raised along the Big Horn Mountains in northern Wyoming and Southern Montana.  He has fond memories of jumping south bound trains to work on his grandfathers farm outside Sheridan and participating in buffalo hunts on the Big Horn Mesas.   Kerry was active duty in Libya and Iran while serving his country in the United States Army as a certified topographic surveyor.

Upon his return to the states he married Clara Rietz and they started their family on their ranch west of Wheatland, Wyoming.  The Powers family eventually moved around the state of Wyoming during his tenure as a District Conservationist for the Soil Conservation Service.  Kerry then retired from civil service and applied his experience with landowners in the private sector as a consultant.  He also became very active in many boards that are charged with managing resources.

Kerry and Clara live and work on the family Ranch, which supports 100 cow calf pairs. Kerry applies the conservation and enhancement strategies he has honed over the years.  Squaw Mountain Consulting works with lenders in valuation services; land owners with range inventories; and other professional assessments of how to make the land work for production, wildlife, and generational ownership.
