An estimated 42,000 elk make up the White River elk herd and the ranch is within the core summer range this herd utilizes. Elk can be regularly seen and harvested each year, all the way from archery through the end of rifle season. Many mule deer and bear call this place home too. Mule deer meander along the forest’s edges in exceptional numbers. Elevations on the ranch range from 8800 ‘ to 9200 ‘ above sea level. Topography includes, aspen groves, natural ponds, pines and, well-watered meadows.
