C Cross C Ranch

Ranch Description

Owned and operated by the same family for over 100 years, the C Cross C Ranch represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the last remaining trophy ranches in one of Colorados most desirable areas, just 20 minutes from the resort town of Steamboat Springs. The ranch includes approximately 2,126 deeded acres, almost one and a half miles of the Upper Yampa River, historic water rights irrigating lush hay fields, unobstructed views of the Flat Tops Wilderness, and year-round access off of Routt County Road 14 and Highway 131. With elevations ranging from 7,200 8,800 above sea level, the terrain and vegetation on the ranch varies from the lush irrigated hay meadows along the river up to the thick fir and Aspen covered mountainsides with wildflowers and bracken ferns blanketing the forest floor. The ranch boasts excellent hunting opportunities with numerous game species including elk, mule deer, black bear, and mountain lion. Fly fishermen will also appreciate the 1.4 miles of the Upper Yampa River, and just downstream from the ranch is the 780-Acre Stagecoach Reservoir which is known for great trout and northern pike fishing. The neighboring Stagecoach State Park, Routt National Forest, White River National Forest and Sarvice Creek and Flat Tops Wilderness offers the outdoor enthusiast year-round access to thousands of acres of public land. Modern conveniences are never far away with the town of Oak Creek less than 1 mile to the north. Steamboat Springs is just 20 miles to the northeast and the planned Stagecoach Ski Area is just minutes from the property. Commercial air service is available at the Yampa Valley Airport, less than 30 miles to the northwest. Contact Daniel Carter.
