Our ranches are all located near Walden, Colorado
Our ranches are all located near Walden, Colorado. This is the North Park area of Colorado, about 165 miles northwest of Denver and 40 miles east of Steamboat Springs. All of the ranches are primarily elk ranches but we do take some very nice deer every year. All of the ranches have a camping area with some type of sanitary facility.
Drinking water is not available on 3 of the ranches and must be brought in by the hunter, non potable water for cleaning is generally available on the ranch. All of the ranches REQUIRE A 4WD VEHICLE to get around the ranch with. ATC’s and ATV’s are allowed but are under the same restrictions as motor vehicles, as well as additional restrictions. NO HORSES are allowed on any of the ranches. All of the ranches are working cattle ranches so they do have cattle out during the seasons. The ranches are staffed by our personnel to handle any problems and to provide 1st responder assistance in case of an emergency. Our staff is nearly all hunters who have hunted the ranches for years, most of them are law enforcement officers, either active or retired. They will help you with any questions or concerns you might have while on the ranch. These staff members are not guides and will not provide any services beyond those listed above. Staff may or may not be hunting during their time on the ranch.
Additional services such as airline transportation, car rentals, gas, groceries, meat processing, medical attention, and motels can be obtained in Steamboat Springs. Except for airlines, car rentals and medical attention these same services can be obtained in Walden, which is about 25 miles from the ranches.
Out of state OHV’s that are used on public lands must be registered in Colorado. If you plan to use your ATV on our ranches only then they do not have to be registered. ATV permits can be obtained from most license agents or online.
