Mule Deer Supreme at Sage Hen, +/-400 acres, Montezuma County, Colorado Imagine +/-400 deeded acres currently registered with Colorado Parks and Wildlife as two different entities, each entity large enough to receive a landowner mule deer buck application annually... With over-the-counter bull elk tags, this off-grid sportsman’s paradise shares over a mile of border with the San Juan National Forest (1.8 million acres) and has produced trophy class mule deer and elk annually for decades. Location Overlooking McPhee State Reservoir, Colorado’s second largest lake, the entrance is just 1/4 mile away from the front gate, with only state or federal land between you and the lake. With over 50 miles of shoreline, the lake provides for additional year-round recreation, including tons of waterfowl and offering incredible kayaking, pontoon boating, water skiing and boat rentals. (Check seasons.) However, fishing is what McPhee Reservoir is most noted for, including its amazing smallmouth bass, Kokanee (land locked salmon), trout, walleye and catfish. There are miles of beaches that are accessible by boat or vehicle. The headwaters of the Dolores River originate but a quarter mile from the property, offering the fly fisherman miles of gold medal water, along with kayaking and rafting... The Land Approximately 140 acres of the 400 are have been in production some time in the past, with it currently planted in native grasses. It’s easily to see from 100 to 300 deer on the property most all year, with fall and winter migrations increasing these populations tremendously. Plenty of elk are there as well, especially during the hunting season, with the current owners filling a couple bull tags almost every year. While not enrolled in any type of conservation easement program, due to the proximity to so much federal and state land, the ranch could be an ideal candidate. It would also lend itself to future subdivision or development. Montezuma County/Dolores area is most noted for producing some of the largest mule deer bucks in the record book, including the all time Burris Buck, #1 typical, taken not far from this property. Years of personal, hands-on experience has allowed the owners to strategically place 6 tower blinds (included) between the bedding and feeding areas. And, while sitting in one of the tower blinds, you can experience 360-degree San Juan Mountain views overlooking the McPhee State Reservoir. There’s an extensive trail system throughout and even a 12 x 20 day camp cabin on the property. Getting tired of the annual disappointment of not drawing a tag and the constant “points creep” many hunters now endure chasing a tag to go hunting? How do you take your kids hunting when they can’t even get drawn for a tag? Perhaps it’s time for you to invest in your own hunting paradise with landowner mule deer tags every year and over-the-counter bull elk tags. If so, the 400 beautiful acres of Mule Deer Supreme at Sage Hen could be your 401K hunting family hunting retreat! You can’t get hurt with dirt.......
