Colorado is known for its excellent big game hunting, and this property is no exception. While it does not border public lands, many thousands of acres of public hunting are within a 10-minute drive from the property. The owner has harvested several nice mule deer bucks and several elk right on the property. Elk migrate through the ranch by the hundreds during certain times of the year. GMU 63 is known as one of the best units in the state for trophy mule deer bucks, and many Boone & Crockett bucks have been taken within a 10-mile radius of the property. Elk hunting in the vicinity is excellent. There are good populations of bears, wild turkeys, and mountain lion as well.

Just across the valley, the Crystal Creek area has many trailheads reaching into the high country, and all kinds of routes for horseback riding, ATV riding, hunting, hiking, and packing.
