Rustic Ranch Camping

We are surrounded by BLM land and 5 miles from the base of the Jarbidge Mountain Wilderness. We have miles and miles of 2-track dirt roads and a Forest Service road that runs along the base of the Mountains that provide great scenic routes.

There are creeks near by that provide great fishing. Just back down the road you came in on is Boies Reservoir which provides great fishing. The Little Salmon river runs within 5 to 8 miles of the ranch. It is a little tricky to get to so bring waders for sure.

Hiking is the best! We are located 5 miles from the base of the wilderness. Once to the wilderness there are several outfitters horse trail that access the mountains and many cow trail that we have maintain to get in and out of the wilderness during our cattle movements. No vehicle access in the wilderness so you are surrounded by sounds belonging only to nature.

We do have rock formations around for the person interested. We are not experts in what are great climbing conditions but there are large cliffs around the mountains.

This is subject to change from year to year. Ask for the current conditions before coming. We can have enough snow to snowmobile from our backdoor and/or cross-country ski, however, some winters might be mild with little snow.

Take a plunge in our irrigation headgate that backs up the water in Cottonwood Creek and creates the local swimming hole. Fairly rustic without any luxuries but provides a place to cool off. Be prepared for ice cold water conditions! With the tremendous beaver activities we have developed within our riparian areas the creek stay pretty darn chilly year round.

We sit in the heart of sage grouse country. Through innovated and sustainable grazing practices we have healthy population of sage grouse you might be able to glimpse. There is also a wide diversity of wildlife surrounding the ranch from small birds to bird of prey, deer, antelope, elk, coyotes, rabbits, moose, etc.

The Jarbidge Mountains/Toiyabe National Forest is located 5 miles to the West of the ranch. There are several other mountain ranges that surround the ranch.

Cottonwood Creek runs right through the middle of our private meadows and along the edge of the RV park and barn area. There are several other water drainage's that surround the ranch.

We are a multi-family generational working cattle ranch with recreational facilities. Where the RV and tent camping is resides near our barnyard and edges of some of our private meadows. Depending on time of year cattle or horse work will be taking place in the corrals. Border Collie type dogs do reside here and roam about with the individual that has them.
