Recreation

A Bar Ranch executive estate boasts Trophy Mule Deer, Elk, Antelope, Turkey and various small game, birds and predators. Elk tags are over the counter plains elk tags. The elk sign on the ranch at the time of listing may be the most sign per acre of any property that I’ve had the privilege of touring. This makes the fall of the year a slam dunk for Elk hunters. The ranch is in Game Management Unit 104 and its a draw area for Deer and Pronghorn. The property has the facilities for equine recreation and would make a great destination for any equine discipline.

Agriculture

The eastern 16 acres is level dry land tillable farm ground and ideal for hay production. The western portion is grazing land with Ponderosa Pine covered hills.

Region & Climate
