The Powderhorn Wilderness Area is across the west fence line and 130,000-acre Lagurita Wilderness Area to the south and portions of the east form the ranch boundary. Jeep, ATV, hiking and horse trails are accessed out of the ranch in multiple directions. Hike out the front door onto BLM maintained trails leading in to the Powderhorn Wilderness Area, fish one of the many high country lakes via jeep trail or ride for hours on horseback in to the Forest Service land nearby to view elk, moose, deer and Big Horn sheep. The ranch is located in the world-famous, fully limited big game UNIT 66, supporting outstanding elk and Mule deer with exceptional bull to cow, buck to doe ratios and some of the world’s largest Mule deer. Due to the large acreage, the ranch qualifies for numerous land owner tags for both deer and elk.
