The Pothook Unit of the Slater Creek Ranch is 2960 +/- acres of a classic high mountain river valley with high peaks surrounding the vast picturesque hay meadows. Slater Creek is a beautiful trout stream that meanders for over 4.5 miles through willow-banked meadows. There is a good mix of alpine meadows, pines, and aspen groves, as well as long oak brush and serviceberry ridges that drop down to the sagebrush benches above the river bottom.
Land
The approximately 325 acres of hay meadows produce hundreds of tons of quality hay and exceptional late-season grazing opportunities for cattle and wildlife alike. Located in the heart of the elk migration corridor, thousands of elk will pass through the ranch every fall as they move from the summer range to the east to the winter range west of Highway 13. Plenty of resident elk call the valleys and ridges of the ranch home as well.
Slater Creek Ranch has abundant senior water rights and shares the #1 right on all of Slater Creek. The creek also provides great fishing. Additionally, many ponds and springs on the ranch provide water at higher elevations for cattle grazing and the abundant elk, mule deer, and pronghorn antelope that call the ranch home.
Sharp-tail grouse, sage grouse, and dusky grouse reside on this very diverse property. There are two homes on the ranch.
