Home Details
Set on the west facing slope at the north end of the Portneuf Range, this 1,040 acre ranch stretches out with room to work, explore, and get away from it all. The views are the kind you donât get tired of, clear lines to every horizon, with elevations ranging from 5,400 to 6,250 feet. Terrain varies across the property, from stands of heavy timber and old cedar to rolling sagebrush and dry farmed ground thatâs now in a strong grass stand. The ranch borders BLM land along its eastern edge, opening up access and providing a buffer of quiet country. Itâs currently leased for cattle grazing, and about half the acreage had been dry farmed in wheat before it went into CRP. That program ended two years ago, but whatâs been left behind is good grass and healthy cover, appealing not just for livestock, but also for regional wildlife. A seasonal spring cuts through the land and adds value, especially for those thinking of long-term grazing or recreation. Access comes via a 3 mile gravel road, which adds a sense of seclusion while still keeping you connected, just 9 miles to Lava Hot Springs for a soak, a burger, or a float, and 38 miles northeast to Pocatello for groceries, hardware, and everything else. Salt Lake International is about 141 miles south via I-15. This ranch sits in Idahoâs Big Game Unit 74, a spot known by locals for its solid late season muzzleloader deer hunt that lines up with the rut. There are also elk hunts in the area, including an early rifle season thatâs available through a controlled draw. As a landowner here, youâd also be eligible to enter the Idaho Fish and Gameâs Landowner Appreciation Program, a lottery style draw that gives property owners expanded opportunities, which can be a real benefit for anyone who hunts or wants to invite family and friends. Whether you're looking to expand your grazing operation, build a private hunting basecamp, or just stake your claim in a quiet pocket of southeast Idaho, this land offers space, function, and natural beauty without needing to dress it up.
