You’re not just near the Snake River Canyon—you’re on the edge of it. The sweeping views stretch for miles, offering a dramatic and constantly shifting landscape that few people get to experience so intimately. Location is just 15 minutes south of Jerome, Idaho, I-84 interchange.

Welcome to Brasil Beef high desert pasture 🏜️ 🌵 Our property is 4 miles from BLM, 5 miles from the Mammoth caves and 10 miles from the Ice Caves. You may be greeted by horses, cattle or dogs on our property, and it's quite possible that you will encounter snakes 🐍 and hear coyotes at night (light sleepers take this into account). We do not have designated areas but, please don’t block the turn around area to the far south, please park wherever you desire, walk your route as this virgin ground has many rocks. 🪨 If leveling is an issue & you need to block the road, let’s verify we have no other campers coming. There is a runoff river that runs through the property in the early spring but, rarely has water, however, it has amazing lava rock (similar to Black Magic Canyon which isn’t far away); We also like to use it for campfires! Do not drive into the river bottom unless you have 4WD. Please reach out with questions and we look forward to your visit! Check out all of our extras! We raise Wagyu beef & offer liver dog treats, sourdough bread, we often have dozens of eggs on hand from a local chicken farmer and I make tallow lotion with a dear friend! I am happy to help you source anything you may be interested in while in our little community! 🚌-40ft+ Class A motorhome, traveling East down the 520N you need to turn left on the gravel road (North 250E) and right on 670N-at the stop sign turn right on 3 mile rd E and it will connect you to 520N where you will turn left into the property as the gate is angled to enter this way.

Learn more about this land: Pull onto the property and find your favorite spot to pitch a tent or park the RV. Watch out for water, flooding, dry grass, snow and wind! The views are gorgeous, the wildlife is active, and the property is accessible but quiet! 360 degree views of mountains, prairie and the creek right on the property. Gentle winds keep the bugs away during the summer, but can cause blizzard conditions during the winter and fire hazards during the summer/fall. Be advised! Always walk the property before driving on it for best results.
