Western New Mexico Ranching And Hunting Property

This property is located within Game Management Unit 10, which is known for its trophy elk hunting and is eligible to participate in New Mexico Game and Fish’s elk landowner system (EPLUS). Elk, mule deer, and other wildlife utilize this property. Private land mule deer licenses are currently unlimited and sold over the counter so a landowner can regulate the number of hunters to meet their management objectives. The ranch provides good forage and dirt tank water availability for maintaining elk and mule deer use on the property. The terrain consists of a gentle topography with open meadows of native grasses and mild stands of pinyon and juniper trees. This property has been historically used as part of a bigger family cattle ranch operation and its perimeter is completely fenced with barbed wire fencing. The property has a well on it that was historically operated by a windmill but has been converted to use a submersible pump powered by a generator. This is a raw piece of land that has much potential to be turned into a phenomenal property. Opportunities for a horse property, a hunting property, a livestock/ranching property, or to build your dream home in a rural setting away from the big city awaits you with this property. The area is rich with historic Native American Puebloan occupancy and near the path Spanish conquistadors traveled in search of a medieval myth of golden cities to be found at a place called Cibola. Unbelievable panoramic views of red sandstone bluffs and majestic views of Oso Ridge within the Zuni Mountains captivate the beauty of the area. Nearby outdoor opportunities are endless. The nearby Cibola National Forest, El Morro National Monument, El Malpais National Monument and Bureau of Land Management lands offer everything from hiking, hunting, biking, horseback riding areas, Off-Highway Vehicle riding opportunities, fishing, camping and much more. Along the access road is the stunning sandstone rock formation known as the "Gigantes" named for its look of giants formed in the sandstone bluff.
