This is one of the most coveted river valleys in Colorado with world-class fly fishing and spectacular panoramic views of the Gore Range all within 20 miles of skiing and 80 miles of Denver. Bordering the White River National Forest for three miles, the ranch offers exclusive Blue River frontage, lush irrigated fields, and exquisite improvements.
Given its remarkable location, the ranch enjoys a host of year-round activities accessible directly from/on the property. Backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, boating/floating, horseback riding, hiking, and access to miles of USFS and County maintained trails, Pass Creek Ranch is a recreational paradise. With upwards of a mile of Blue River frontage, USFS wilderness study area backdrop, and a diversity of habitat types including montane, sub-alpine forests, upland sage grassland, and riparian valley bottoms, the ranch is a sportsperson’s paradise.
Hunting
Though not actively/commercially hunted by the current landowner, the hunting ranch is a superb location for the active sportsman. Located in GMU 37, the ranch is home to elk, mule deer and whitetail, moose, antelope, and a host of forest predators and wildlife including black bear, mountain lion, coyote, mink, otter, and beaver. The area is generally recognized as an easy draw and OTC (Over the Counter) unit with landowner preference tags variously available depending on the year (recently 4th season buck tags).
Fishing
The Blue River is a well-known trout fishery. The immediate section flowing thru the ranch has been enhanced with a number of improved rock drops and deep holding water making it one of the premier private locations on the entire Blue River. In addition to the remarkable fly water on the ranch, there is excellent fishing to be had in nearby Green Mountain, Dillon, and Wolford Mt. Reservoirs, all with lake trout, pike, and seasonal kokanee runs.
Recreation
Backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, boating/floating, horseback riding, ORVing, hiking, and access to miles of USFS and County maintained trails, Pass Creek Ranch is a recreational paradise.
Horses
The ranch operates a small but profitable and popular horse boarding facility and equestrian service which provides horse owners and riders access to the backcountry trails and ranch facilities, including an outdoor riding arena and Gymkhana training stations.
