The Belshaw Creek Ranch is an incredible opportunity to own a premier western big game hunting and cattle ranch in the historic John Day Valley in Eastern Oregon. The ranch backs up to USFS for 4 miles and has locked gates that allow you to access the Malheur National Forest. The ranch is extremely well watered with over 2 miles of creeks that run year round through the property. The hunting history is impressive on the ranch. There have been numerous bulls and bucks harvested over the years with the most recent being a 7x7 bull in 2021. The ranch qualifies for 5 LOP tags for Elk and 5 LOP tags for deer in the highly coveted Northside hunting unit. In addition to trophy hunting, the ranch boasts amazing stands of timber. There is Douglas Fir and Ponderosa Pine all over the property. No timber cruise has been done. There is a rustic hunting cabin that sits along the creek complete with a corral to keep your horses in. The cabin needs a little work to make it habitable again. The ranch has a very diverse array of topography. Large timber is present all over the property with intermixed juniper and mountain mahogany. There are rocky ridges, lush creek bottoms, quaking aspen stands, mountain meadows full of wildflowers, and incredible vistas. The ranch sits on the North side of the John Day Valley and provides spectacular views of the Aldrich Mountain Range and Fields Peak, which is the highest point in Oregon between Strawberry Mountain and the Cascade Range. There is an extensive road and trail system throughout the property for ease of access and ATV riding. The property is fenced and cross fenced for cattle grazing and the fences are in good working condition. The Belshaw Creek Ranch is a rare opportunity to own a large deeded tract of land that has abundant water and national forest access along with amazing privacy. 8 seperate tax lots!
