Hotchkiss, CO 81419 - Delta County

The Hughes Hotchkiss Ranch (sometimes referred to as the Grand Mesa Ranch) is one of the most unique, private and scenic properties in the North Fork area, containing +/- 4,338 acres over 5 parcels. At an elevation of about 8,400 feet, the ranch includes the West Reservoir (a Yurt is located near the reservoir) and is bisected by Jay Creek, which extends over two miles. Wildlife abounds on the ranch, including bears, elk, deer, mountain lions and numerous bird species. The West Elk mountains appear close enough to touch on clear days. The Seller has reserved substantial irrigation water that is available for a Buyer's discretional use on the property. BLM land joins the ranch on 3 sides and the ranch is almost equally divided between GMU's 52 and 521. The ranch adjoins approximately 21,000 acres of BLM property. The property would make incredible summer pasture for cow-calf pairs, with stock water available in Jay Creek for the length of the ranch. The property is protected for posterity by a Conservation Easement (including building envelopes), assuring it will always be the scenic, private property it is at this point in time. Please be sure to view the video.

NOTE: This property is co-listed with Seth Craft and Dan Murphy of M4 Ranch Group.
