Property Description
Welcome to the Whiskey Jug Ranch—465 pristine acres offering panoramic views of the West Elk Mountains and unmatched seclusion. This premier hunting retreat is located in renowned Unit 521 and is ideal for elk, deer, and bear hunting, with diverse terrain that includes scrub oak, open meadows, and timbered hillsides.
West Roatcap Creek meanders along the southern boundary, providing seasonal water and enhancing the wildlife habitat. After a day in the field, unwind at the cozy 12' x 12' hunters' cabin—rustic, clean, and functional—with a detached outhouse.
The property is currently in a grazing lease in 2025 and will be terminated upon purchase if desired by new owner. Contiguous to approximately 1,200 acres of adjacent BLM land, plus shared access to a BLM corral. Elevations range from 7,000 to 8,370 feet, providing excellent terrain diversity. All this within easy reach of Paonia and its amenities.
A rare combination of private land, public land access, and proven hunting grounds—this is a turn-key opportunity for ranching, recreation, or investment.
