Income Potential

The dry cropland is currently planted in alfalfa. The timbered range is conducive to grazing and currently leased as a cow/calf summer grazing unit for 2014.  Pasture lease rates as well as the carrying capacity can vary from year to year as dictated by the weather and markets.   

History & Improvements

The ranch was homesteaded around the turn of the century as evidenced by dates hand carved in the timber framework of the old log/stone barn. A lifetime of hard work went towards constructing a set of buildings first by hand hewn timbers, then by native stone and finally a residence built of milled lumber. Unfortunately not much may be salvaged from these structures but the perseverance of the local ancestry remains.
