Property Description

Just outside of Raton, NM, sits the majestic Buck Ridge Ranch. Known and managed for its excellent trophy quality Mule Deer. With several springs, ponds, and food plots, the trophy caliber Mule Deer in this area call this ranch home, and with only very few management bucks being taken from the property, the mature bucks are any deer hunters' dream! The terrain on the ranch varies and is also the perfect habitat for hunting elk, turkey, bear, and mountain lion. Hunting blinds are set strategically throughout the ranch for many "ready to go" options to hunt from.  Amazing views stretch as far as the eye can see from the top of the rimrock outcroppings. Varying vegetation includes pines, pinons, native grass, and scrub oak.  The trail system maneuvers efficiently throughout the entire ranch. A bonus is the two different access points to enter and exit for different hunting scenarios or multiple hunters. Multiple springs provide adequate water throughout the ranch. In addition, all ponds are easily accessible for wildlife and possibly recreational use.The 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom ranch house needs extensive work. However, it is located just below the rimrock, in a beautiful setting that would be a prime location to build, is accessed by an all-weather county-maintained road. The ranch access located at the bottom of the mesa is paved to the turn off to the gate.
