RANCH AND IMPROVEMENTS

The 458 acre Rockn LB Ranch is located in the Upper Klamath Basin, 14 miles east of Upper Klamath Lake, along a meandering main stem of the Sprague River, within a wideopen valley of primarily private ranches surrounded by Winema National Forest. The Sprague River is a tributary to the Williamson River and known as a meadow stream with brook, rainbow and brown trout, and bass. Near a spring on the Sprague River in the southeast corner of the Ranch is an outstanding fishing hole. The Ranch is at an elevation of 4,200 to 4,300 feet and has frontage along Williamson River Road, with paved yearround access to Chiloquin and Highway 97 north to Bend and south to Klamath Falls.

The Sprague River frontage extends along the entire southern boundary of the Ranch, and includes ownership of both banks of the Sprague River in the southeast section of the property, and also includes small islands between the River and channel.

The property is primarily rolling to flat pastureland lined with timber, having an estimated 296 acres of irrigated pasture and 151 acres of nonirrigated pasture and timberland. Ranch headquarters are located on 10 acres along a ridge top overlooking the Sprague River, with gated paved entry drive to the caretaker residence, corrals, horse pen and main residence, shop and horse barn. The main residence was built in 1973, caretaker residence constructed in 2005, and horse barn and shop built during the last ten years. There is a stock pond near the river, below the main residence, and a second stock pond in the northwest corner of the western pasture.

Williamson River Road runs along the northern portion of the Ranch; the entire property is fenced, with opportunity for crossfencing to improve productivity of the pastureland.

The estimated carrying capacity of the Ranch is 250 head for five to six months for summer pasture, and has historically run 180 head on a yearround basis with winter feed.

The 296 acres of pasture are flood irrigated from a main line, with three pumping stations along the Sprague River.

There is a rock road system that provides access from the main entry road to the riverfront and extends from the area below the main residence by the stock pond and pumping station east to the southeast corner and the third pumping station.

The Ranch is being offered in two parcels.

Parcel A is 299 acres, all located in Section 24 (Tax Lots 2000 and 2100) and includes the Ranch complex with two homes, shop, horse barn and hay shed, and an estimated 235 acres of irrigated pasture with 1.5 miles of riverfront. Parcel B is 157 acres, all located in Section 19, with an estimated 60 acres of irrigated pasture and .4 mile of riverfront. The sale of these as two separate parcels would require an allocation of water rights and some reconfiguration of the irrigation system mainline. A new entry road for Parcel B would need to be developed from Williamson River Road.

CONSERVATION PARTNERSHIP WITH U.S. FISH & WILDLIFE

The Rockn LB Ranch has been a participant with U.S. Fish & Wildlife and Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board in a program along the 1.9 miles of Sprague River frontage to improve water quality and enhance habitat for the endangered Lost River and Shortnose Sucker fish, as well as the threatened Cutthroat trout. Over $250,000 in public funds has been invested in straightening and steepening the Sprague River Channel through placement of wedges in the three meander bends along the Ranch riverfront. Placement of wedges using rocks and logs, installation of diversion pipes, relocation and replacement of water pumps and plantings and revegetation of riparian banks has all been completed. Additionally, Rockn LB Ranch has installed fencing to keep livestock out of the river channel in order to assist in the water and riparian enhancement project, and has signed an agreement allowing U.S. Fish and & Wildlife to monitor the enhancement project until 2021. (See agreement in Supplemental Information Package.)
