Teton Jewel is a 2,558-acre ranch located in Teton County, Idaho. As the name aptly captures, this property is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The ranch was created in 1980's through deliberate land acquisition with an eye to beauty, utility and conservation. Since its formation the ranch has seen only light use and virtually no development leaving it a rare haven of the old west. The ranch has all three of the primary value-determining attributes for a recreational ranch of live water, contiguity with National Forest, and extraordinary elevated views of the Teton Range.
Teton Jewel is located at the western termination of public land ownership in the Horseshoe Canyon area of the Teton Valley. Therefore, through its nearly five miles of contiguity with the 3,000,000-acre Caribou-Targhee National Forest capitalizes in a most direct way on its location in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. In addition to the seclusion and boundless recreational opportunities offered by bordering National Forest, Teton Jewel is located at the transition zone from the Teton Valley floor to foothills of Big Hole Range, with its highest elevations being approximately 350 feet above the valley floor. This location affords the property an ideal mix of level fields, rolling hills, and high meadows located above areas of more dramatic topographic relief. Additionally, in equal measure of benefit to the property's Forest contiguity (if not more), the elevated views of the Teton Range afforded by this location are second-to-none in the Teton Valley.

As a 2,558-acre ranch, Teton Jewel is one of the larger land holdings in the Teton Valley, especially when limiting consideration to properties that are easily accessed over year around roads. In addition to the Forest contiguity, exceptional views and topography mentioned already, the property is also traversed by Horseshoe Creek, with over one mile of frontage on this creek that ranges in character from ideal willowy habitat for area wildlife, to an idyllic scenic amenity.
