Acreage increase from 960 to now 2245 +/- acre incredible hunting ranch is now available. Located in Hesperus, CO just a short 30 minutes from the mountain town of Durango, CO. The secret to the hunting on this ranch is that the ranch borders Ute Indian Land where the general public is not allowed to hunt, thus many of the animals reach Boone and Crocket status. Several ponds and wells are in place. The ranch encompasses +/- 2245 acres. There are no unwanted improvements (like someone else’s dream mansion) to pay for. Several ideal secluded building locations have been identified that would allow you to enjoy the San Juan Mountain views but would not impact your incredible hunting. The land consists of dense Juniper and Cedar trees with large open pockets that were created for food plots, there are 3 solar wells that fill the dirt ponds and water the food plots year round. The ranch is located off of a year-round maintained road, is gated, has only one entrance and is easily accessible. The surrounding properties consist of large private ranches/farms, so there is no “orange army” interfering with your hunting. The entire west and part of the south side is Ute Land and the Ute Indians are known their meticulous game management. The animals have an undisturbed sanctuary on the Ute land and then will visit the ranch for the water and food plots and shelter. There is documented 360 plus Elk and 180-200 plus D Mule Deer. Also the land holds bears, bobcats and lions so your hunting options have a variety of directions. Colorado offers OTC Elk tags for 2nd and 3rd rifle (always check regs) and the ranch comes with several landowner Mule Deer tags (3/5 per year. ) The land has not been hunted hard in years as the owner lives overseas, however, the owner does sell his tags (for Elk & Mule Deer) and other hunts (Lion and Bear) could also be sold or used for yourself. The way the land sits it’s ideal for the archery hunters while also the large open spaces makes for great big game, long-rifle/muzzle loader hunting. There is currently no conservation easement but the property could be an ideal candidate for the tax minded, conservation legacy ranch investor.
