THE BURIAL TREE RANCH
 An Historic Western Colorado Ranch
 

    
The Burial Tree Ranch is nearly 270 acres of stunning ground located on either side of the Uncompahgre River between the extremely desirable areas of Montrose and Ridgway Colorado. When you see this incredible place a number of images will come to mind--but here are some the most likely: Wildlife, river, history, native people, mountains, railroads, ranches, fish, and green grass. This historic ranch has been owned by the same family for the last half century and it has retained the flavor of what it has always meant to own a Western Colorado ranch. Roughly half of the property is serviced by high priority irrigation water. The shared water rights allow the owner to have full access to the water for sixteen days a month! There are remnants of an old homestead on the south end of the property, and even the existing homestead--while not exactly a mansion!--is a historic treasure. You will see the old schoolhouse from the area integrated into a barn on the property.

Access into public lands is another prime attribute of this parcel. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands
border the property on both sides and Ridgway state park is just a stone's throw away. Within a 10 mile radius of this property are over 20 thousand acres of public lands-most of them accessible from this property. This
was treasured ground for the native peoples in our area too. The name "Burial Tree Ranch" comes from the grouping of trees once used by the Utes to honor the dead. This area, where Cow Creek, the Uncompahgre River, and Chaffee Creek converge was a favorite gathering ground due to the good fishing, hunting and relatively mild winters. One of the shots in the included pictures shows the burial trees--see if you can pick them out! For those of you who love rivers-this is the best in Western Colorado! Since the property begins only one mile down from the dam of Ridgway Reservoir, the flow levels are controlled throughout the year--leading to a year-round fishery. Due to almost no pressure you'll find monster rainbow, cutthroat and brown trout. Your private fishery would be more than a mile of the best fishing Colorado has to offer! A final, spectacular bonus is the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad right-of-way that winds its way through the property from north to south. This not only gives the owner complete entitlement to the property, but also provides an already established access road to service the property. It also means that the trestle on the property would actually belong to you--let your mind wander as to how you would use that treasure! Please check out our shots on the website, find this great parcel on a map, and schedule a trip here to see it. Please contact the listing agent--Todd Schroedel(970-318-2160) at the Ridgway Office for more information and to arrange a showing.
