2 Ranch Property The Double M Ranch is a unique opportunity to own a professionally restored trout fishery and recreational ranch. The ranch is located on the valley floor of Jackson County Colorado, also known as North Park. North Park is the headwaters of the North Platte River. As the snow melts in the surrounding mountain ranges, numerous cold water fisheries are formed on the valley floor, creating ideal conditions for excellent trout habitat. The Michigan River is one of the major tributaries, as it meanders for over 2 miles through the Double M Ranch before merging with the North Platte River downstream. The current owners of this ranch understood the value of the Michigan River ecosystem, and invested over $500,000 in habitat restoration and preservation. As a result, this stretch of the Michigan River is some of the best trout habitat in all of North Park, capable of producing trophy sized Brown Trout. In addition, the preserved riparian ecosystem has created an ideal habitat for numerous water fowl species, hawks, eagles, osprey, badger, beaver, deer, elk and even a resident moose population on the ranch. The Double M Ranch consists of 1150 deeded acres, including both irrigated and dry land pasture. The ranch is fenced and crossed fenced, and has a contiguous perimeter fence around the BLM leased acreage. The ranch is currently generating 500 tons of hay from one cutting on the irrigated pastures. There are ample water rights to increase the hay production and cattle units if desired. The owner also has variable interests in subsurface minerals, and will transfer all mineral rights interest with the sale. Ranch Improvements The Double M Ranch has a modest set of improvements capable of maintaining either hay or cattle operations. The main house consists of 2 bed/1 bath with some remodeling and a nicely landscaped yard. There are several ideal homesites to build additional cabins, lodges or homes, providing outstanding views of the river, meadows, wildlife and surrounding wilderness peaks. There is power, electric and phone on site, with a well and septic system for the main house, and a stock well at the cattle handling and transfer area. The barn is a newer aluminum sided barn, with an attached work shop and storage area. The ranch property has perimeter fencing and some cross fencing. The quality of this trout fishery and recreational ranch would sell for over $5,000/acre in Star Valley Wyoming, and over $10,000/acre just one hour west in Steamboat Springs /Yampa Valley. If you desire to own a recreational ranch with outstanding hunting, fishing and backcountry access, North Park is without a doubt the best value in the Rocky Mountain Region. The Double M Ranch is available today for $2,950,000 ($2,565/ acre) Please contact Marcus Wiley at Ranch Partners Real Estate for details.

The fertile land was here, and the water, and the timber, and many slowed their steps and stayed. As the farm & ranch business grew, the town of Walden developed into the primary service provider for the early pioneers, ranchers and miners. Today, the quiet town of Walden serves as the county seat of Jackson County, providing all major community services, including K-12 schools, government offices, agriculture support services and all community shopping and entertainment centers. Jackson County has become a recreational paradise, offering outstanding hunting, fishing, biking, camping backcountry and snow machine activities.
