Montana's Gateway to Winter
Just north of Yellowstone is a parkland you haven't seen. A playground for all things winter, the northern gateway to Yellowstone is magnificent. If you like the outdoors, and can brave a bit of cold, Montana in the winter will surprise and exhilarate you.
Go backcountry skiing at Big Sky Resort, or visit Cooke City, which has the best snowmobiling in the state. If you’d rather slay some untouched POWDER, stay in the Mt. Zimmer Yurt in the Beartooth Mountains for incredible access.
Lone Mountain Ranch has epic Nordic skiing tracks, and 320 Guest Ranch runs super fun sleigh rides. When you’re ready to “Warm up with Western Hospitality,” head to Bozeman for tasty eats and craft brews.

McCall Red Ridge Ranch
McCall Red Ridge Ranch
Adams & Valley County
31,122 Total Acres
30,912 Deeded Acres, 130 State Acres, 80 BLM Acres
$1,995/acre
At over 30,000 contiguous deeded acres, McCall Red Ridge Ranch is a scenic mountain timber ranch nestled in the stunning Payette National Forest. Overlooking and adjacent to the major tourist town of McCall, Idaho, the ranch has uniquely positioned mountain ranges; making it one of the very few ranches located on a geographic divide that produces streams flowing both north and south. Numerous ridges stretch through the property including the famous Red Ridge, the ranch’s namesake. A unique and rare first time offering, this recreational and productive ranch is full of water, timber, big game, and endless division and subdivision possibilities.
Water
The ranch is blessed with an extreme abundance of natural water throughout. There is an innumerable amount of springs on the property with some springs that have yet to be discovered. The head waters to many major streams and rivers either start in the mountains of McCall Red Ridge Ranch or originate upstream and flow through the many high valleys of the ranch: Little Salmon River, Weiser River, Thrush Creek, Big Creek, Duffner Creek, Fish Creek, Vick Creek, Mill Creek, Beaver Creek, Little Creek, and countless unnamed stream tributaries.
Land & Wildlife
Due to its sheer size and abundance of timber, McCall Red Ridge Ranch is one of only a few properties in North America that is essentially comparable to owning your own national forest. The ranch is comprised of 30,912 deeded acres, 130 state acres, and 80 BLM acres making it a virtually untouched wilderness property with a large amount of mature timber. On the ranch there are many lush, high elevation meadows with mountain timber ridges rising out of the meadow edges. Wildlife abounds throughout the ranch including elk, mule deer, black bear, upland birds, turkey, and moose.
Location
The McCall Red Ridge Ranch is located in both Valley and Adams County and is approximately 5 miles west of McCall, a major year-round tourist resort town. McCall offers all the services one needs including, but not limited to, restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, and golf. The ranch is only minutes from the pristine Payette Lake, a natural glacial mountain lake (392 ft deep) that supports many recreational activities and breathtaking views. To the south is Tamarack Snow Ski Resort, a family oriented ski resort overlooking Lake Cascade. Additionally, there are two conveniently located public airports in McCall and nearby Cascade.
Summary
McCall Red Ridge Ranch is joined on numerous sides by national forest land. Bordering the ranch is over thirty (30) miles of Forest Service land which connects two divisions of the Payette National Forest. There are multiple road frontage access points on different ends of the ranch allowing for easy access year-round. This ranch truly has it all; unequaled privacy, adjacent to one of the most stunning national forests, an abundancy of water, a diverse population of wildlife, merchantable timber, and all within 5 minutes from the major tourist town of McCall.

HAWKS NEST RANCH
Located nine miles east of the quaint town of Crawford, the Hawks Nest Ranch is hands down one of the most strikingly beautiful parcels Colorado has to offer. This 160-acre, pure in-holding is directly bound on all sides by Gunnison National Forest lands (1.70-million acres) the West Elk Wilderness (176,500-acres) and has remained under the same ownership dating back to the 1940’s. There is not another privately held parcel to the north, south or east for miles and public access to the Wilderness areas outside of the ranch are extremely limited. The end-of-the road location provides the ultimate in privacy and solitude. In addition to the virtual private use of the Forest lands and Wilderness, there are numerous nearby recreational attractions:
Needle Rock Natural Area (5-mins.)
Crawford Reservoir State Park (15-mins.)
Black Canyon National Park (45-mins.)
Blue Mesa Reservoir (largest reservoir in Colorado – 1 hr.)
Aspen/Snowmass, Telluride and Crested Butte Ski Resorts (approx. 2-hrs.)
From Crawford, primary retailers and restaurants are located in Delta (30-mins.), Montrose (1-hr.), Gunnison (1.5-hrs.) and Grand Junction (2-hrs.)
LAND
The Through Line hiking and horseback trail (auto and ATV restricted) originates on the ranch and extends through the Wilderness and National Forest for endless miles, eventually connecting with points as far northeast as Aspen, Snowmass Village and Crested Butte. Access to the trail embarking from the ranch is only permitted by the ownership. A public access point to the trail exists east of the ranch on National Forest. The topography of the property ranges from level hay meadows, cottonwood lined creek bottoms and gently sloping foothills contained below the immense mountains that surround the property. The varying elevations, shapes, sizes and differing timber cover of the adjacent mountains are what establish Hawks Nest as a truly distinctive parcel. The ranch affords prominent views of the Big and Little Sand Mountains, Tater Heap, Saddle Mountain, Sheep Mountain, the Needle Rock formation and Grand Mesa to name a few. North and South Smith Fork Creeks are tributaries of the Gunnison River and flow through the ranch, converging near the western property boundary. The creeks are fishable year-round and contain good numbers of brook, brown and rainbow trout. Lone Pine Creek enters the property at the top of the northern pasture and serves as one of the irrigation sources. There are also (3) ponds that could potentially be stocked, if desired. The ranch contains (3) sub-irrigated hay meadows that produce some of the finest mountain grass hay and attract healthy herds of Elk and Mule Deer. Turkey and Black Bear are also frequently sighted. The property will convey with extensive water rights, all seller reserved minerals and is unencumbered by easements. Needle Rock Road is County maintained to approximately one-quarter mile from the ranch gate.
IMPROVEMENTS
Building improvements for the ranch consist of a well-built, hand-hewn log home that was originally constructed in 1922. The home has been consistently maintained by the owners and is of a two-story, five-bedroom, two bath design. Amenities include covered porches overlooking Smith Fork Creek, large living room with fireplace and partial basement. A restored primitive cabin along the creek provides extra room for guests and there are older out-building structures of varying utility (historic log-built storage sheds, blacksmith shop, lean-to and tack room) and a set of sturdy working pens. The property is powered by electricity and propane gas.
Few places in Colorado are of equal to Hawks Nest Ranch. The vast Forest and Wilderness lands essentially serve as an extension to the deeded acreage when considering the prohibitive public access and a starting point of the Through Line Trail within the ranch boundaries. Live trout-filled water, abundant wildlife, pine and aspen forests and awe-inspiring panoramas are just a few of the attributes that make this property a once in a lifetime opportunity to own. To request additional information or schedule a qualified showing call Brent Hedrick.

Tiny Ski Lift in Texas is not such a bad idea | Spider Mountain Bike Park
Just for fun, I traveled to Austin Texas to attend the grand opening of Spider Mountain, a 350 foot lift served downhill mountain bike park. I’ve never seen, much less ridden a park that small with a lift, and Spider Mountain is actually kind of revolutionary. First of all, Spider Mountain is the first year round lift park in the United States. Second of all it contains the only chair lift in the state of Texas.
Nearby Spider Mountain is Reveille Peak Ranch, which contains some of the best riding Texas Hill Country has to offer.
Also during this visit I got to see my friend Scott, who I rode BMX with as a kid. We got to ride with Eric from the YouTube Channel “No Front Brakes” as well, during the grand opening.

The Sniper's Roost - Wild Sheep Hunting in Texas
Go sheep hunting in Texas with Beyond the Grid by Eastmans'. Dan Pickar takes to the desert mountains on an eradication bow hunt for aoudad. Invasive aoudad, or Barbary sheep, compete with native desert bighorn sheep for feed and habitat. Many private landowners want to remove these pests because they are competition to cattle and native desert bighorn sheep. Dan and his buddy Steve-O head south to battle the heat and put some hurt on aoudad. Off season hunting gives these hunters a chance to hone stalking, shooting and bow hunting skills for fall big game seasons.
