Ranch Description

Central Colorado Hunting and Recreational Ranch at its finest with nearly 7 miles of trout stream, abounding buffalo herds, and snow-capped peaks. As the buffalo roll across the tundra for miles, everywhere you turn is a million-dollar view. It does not matter if you are an avid sportsman, or rancher, this ranch has opportunities for all. The 2,900 deeded acres and additional 486 land-locked state lease acres are an outdoorsman's paradise with over 7 miles of live water making this one of the best fishing havens in Central Colorado. The South Fork South Platte River is a tributary of the South Platte River, approximately 45 miles long. It is located near the headwaters of the South Platte in Park County, Colorado, and drains part of the intermontane grassland basin of South Park. It forms the South Platte by its confluence with the Middle Fork of the South Platte River in southern South Park. The ranch has excellent perimeter fencing with cross fencing. The ranch has roads built throughout the borders of the property, making access throughout the ranch easy and assessable. The mixture between the buffalo herds, the significant elk migration, breathtaking views, and miles of trout stream provide the name Little Yellowstone Ranch.
