Property Description
Buck Mesa Ranch is a rare Western Slope offering combining a genuine agricultural grazing operation, live water, and trophy big game country across 550± deeded acres in Garfield and Mesa Counties. Sitting just half a mile from the White River National Forest, the ranch delivers a modest cow/calf operation, productive ground, and recreational depth that's increasingly difficult to assemble in a single Colorado offering. Approximately 215± acres of irrigated pasture and hay meadows anchor the working side of the ranch, supported by water rights from Wallace Creek and a working irrigation system that includes side-roll sprinklers, one big gun, a center pivot, and flood irrigation in select areas. Ranch elevations range from 5,700 to 6,600 feet, climbing from cottonwood-covered creek bottoms through cedar, piñon pine, open pastures, and oak, making for prime elk and mule deer habitat. Topography is a balanced mix of level, sloped, and rolling ground — opening up multiple potential building sites with commanding views of the White River National Forest, the Bookcliffs, and the surrounding valley. Buck Mesa Ranch sits within Game Management Unit 42, qualifying for over-the-counter elk tags during the 2nd and 3rd Rifle seasons and eligible for landowner deer vouchers annually. As hunting seasons progress into October and November, heavy migration pushes elk and mule deer onto the ranch through this corridor, with both Spring Creek and Wallace Creek channeling wildlife to this ranch. Spring turkey hunting along the creek bottoms is exceptional, and the ranch offers strong populations of quality mule deer. Critically, the ranch is unencumbered by conservation easements, preserving full optionality for the next owner. Whether held as a working cattle operation, a private hunting and recreation property, a multigenerational legacy hold, or a strategic land investment, Buck Mesa Ranch delivers the rare combination of productive agriculture, live water, and diverse acreage in a single contiguous block.
