Schlabach Ranch consists of +/-640 acres of well-managed terrain, offering a mix of high mesas, rolling hills, and rugged canyons. The ranch borders a small section of BLM land to the east and a 650,000+ acre section of the 1.5 million-acre Carson National Forest to the south, providing easy access to extensive public lands for hunting and recreation. The property is located in GMU 51 for elk and 51B for deer. The mesa tops are predominantly covered in piñon pines and sagebrush, with sagebrush thinning efforts already completed to improve forage and habitat. The canyons are lined with mature ponderosa pines, creating excellent cover and shelter. These canyons not only serve as natural travel corridors for wildlife but also provide shaded north and east-facing slopes that offer bedding areas, keeping wildlife on the property rather than just passing through. Elevation ranges from about 7,700 feet at the highest points down to 7,000 feet in the southeast corner, where the canyon floor reaches its lowest point. The combination of diverse topography, food sources, and cover makes Schlabach Ranch a place where wildlife doesn’t just visit—they stay. *Buyer to verify all listing information.
Brazos River Crossing Ranch Yellowstone in New Mexico! This +/-2000 acres of pristine New Mexico high country, located at the top of coveted Rio Arriba County, is approximately 12 miles south of the Colorado border! With 100% draw on private landowner mule deer, monster pronghorns and a dozen rocky mountain landowner elk tags annually, the ranch is complimented by a mile plus of rainbows and brook trout on BOTH sides of the Brazos River Bottoms! The Land Big Game Unit 4 Upon viewing the +/-1989.57 pristine and breathtaking acres bordering both sides of the Brazos River, one could easily conclude that it should belong in a state or national park! Brazos River Crossing has been in the same family ownership in excess of 20+ years and is NOT encumbered by any conservation easements, bordered exclusively by larger private ranch holdings (no public lands adjoining) and zero public access. The elevation is +/-10,000 ft., topping out at Brazos Peak at 11,400 ft. Vegetation is aspen mixed with stands of blue spruce, complimented by native grass meadows. Brazos River Crossing has been solely utilized for private recreation, hosting the same long-term hunting clients for over a decade. There’s also an active, long-term tenant that seasonally cattle grazes the property which allows for ag tax status and very low taxes. Ranch access is limited in winter months and would require a snowmobile or tracked vehicles. Fly Fishing and Hunting In the past, fly fishing guides that have leased the ranch represented that this stretch of the Brazos River offers some of the finest fly fishing water available. Period! There’s an additional +/-1 mile of Farley Creek, an incredible brook/trout fishery, the perfect piece of paradise to soak that elk hair caddis with your favorite 2-weight for a wonderful afternoon delight after filling that morning bull elk tag! The elk breed and birth here, with large herds of resident elk calling the ranch home and the valley literally lit up with bugles starting in mid-August. The ranch has historically received +/-12 annual landowner elk authorizations, 6 mature bull, 3 archery and 3 antlerless (always check regs). Rio Arriba County has been the number one producer of B&C entries for Mule Deer every decade since 1960 and Brazos River Crossing holds some timberline bruisers…. The World Record Mundy Buck was harvested within 10 miles. As long as the landowner applies by mid-March, the mule deer tags have been 100% , as have pronghorn antelope tags. Surprisingly, the Brazos River Crossing Ranch has historically harvested a few nice antelope bucks annually, mainly with muzzleloader. The hunting experience on Brazos River Crossing Ranch has been such that in over 10 years, the ranch has never advertised hunts and the return clientele almost 100% . Improvements While the ranch is not representing improvement value, 2 off-grid cabins making up a fully functional hunting camp and are incredible representations of history, one from the 1800’s and one from the 1940’s. One of the cabins has a new roof and a new floor and is used primarily for storage. Propane gas is driven in. The camp has a solar system and is wired for a back-up generator. Drinking water is hauled in and water from creek pond is pumped into the house. The ranch is being conveyed as is, where is (no mineral survey has been conducted) but all solar, mineral (surface & subsurface), timber and wind rights that are owned will convey. Rare riverfront properties in the west, such as Brazos River Crossing Ranch, are so rare that it’s difficult to believe it exists. Options are endless, from legacy family ranch ownership set up in a trust for following generations to the incredible corporate or family retreat. The ranch would be an ideal candidate for Conservation Easement enrollment, an option that is attractive to today’s tax conscious investor. Call or email today for more information.
