Description of the Country Home
|
|
Located in south central Oregon, one hour east of the commercial airport in Klamath Falls, Pine Mountain Cattle Company (PMCC) is an impressive operating and recreation ranch that features 7,810 deeded acres and over 10 miles of the North Fork of the Sprague River and Meryl Creek. Extensive surface and ground water rights along with miles of stream frontage support a well-managed, year-round cattle operation complimented by an outstanding wild trout fishery. In addition, PMCC offers superlative mountain scenery, extensive national forest boundary, private Forest Service grazing permits, a full set of quality residential and agricultural improvements, and a balance of irrigated and sub-irrigated meadows, timbered uplands, and native rangeland. The Pine Mountain Cattle Company is a highly productive, operating cattle ranch with outstanding recreational attributes. The majority of the ranch lies in a single, contiguous block. A separate unit of approximately 600 acres known as the Griffin Ranch includes a beautiful, irrigated high mountain meadow surrounded by tall pine trees just a quarter-mile east of the main ranch. The ranch is bordered by a combination of national forest lands and large private holdings. To the east, Gearhart Mountain (elevation 8,364 feet) is the dominant landmark towering 4,000 feet above the ranch meadows. The defining characteristic of the ranch is its superior water resources. The North Fork of the Sprague River originates on national forest lands east of the ranch and meanders through the property for approximately nine miles providing irrigation water for the ranchs hay fields and pastures as well as opportunities to cast for native redband and brown trout. Approximately 6.5 miles of the North Fork are fully encompassed by the ranch, while the lower 2.5 miles of the river form the propertys southwest boundary. Numerous sloughs and flooded oxbows dot the large meadows on the south side of the North Fork and support extensive sub-irrigated meadows as well as excellent waterfowl habitat. Meryl Creek, a year-round tributary to the North Fork, flows through the ranch for approximately 3.5 miles and is also a source of irrigation water and trout habitat. The Pine Mountain Cattle Company is an outstanding production ranch that offers tremendous grazing and water resources as well as significant operating and management flexibility. The current owner runs approximately 450 mother cows plus bulls and replacements on the ranch year-round and another 450 cow/calf pairs on the ranch from May through September depending on winter precipitation and other related factors. The owners summer grazing operation includes utilizing deeded lands on the ranch as well as five US Forest Service grazing permits exclusive to the ranch and a State grazing lease. Four of the Forest Service permits are considered on/off permits and used in conjunction with the owners contiguous deeded lands. The fifth is a term permit for the Horse Glade Allotment and accommodates 250 pairs from the middle of June through September. Located 5 miles north of the ranch, Horse Glade is an excellent grazing allotment that is well-watered and encompasses productive meadows and timbered rangelands. The State grazing lease is used in conjunction with the owners Forest Service permits. Taking advantage of an abundance of forage on the ranchs deeded lands and grazing allotments, the owners steers typically wean in the fall at over 650 lbs. The quality and quantity of irrigation water associated with the ranch is perhaps its most significant asset. Utilizing surface irrigation water out of the North Fork and Meryl Creek and groundwater from three irrigation wells on the ranch, the owner irrigates a total of 2,100 acres, more or less, including approximately 450 acres of grass hay. The property features more than 1,530 acres of certificated primary water rights with some dating back to 1878 along with two permitted rights not yet in certificate stage for approximately 600 acres of primary irrigation and 430 acres of supplemental irrigation. In addition to the three well pumps, there are two pumping stations in the North Fork. All pumps on the ranch are low pressure/high volume. With the exception of one wheel line, the ranch is flood irrigated. Hay fields on the ranch are cut one time and yield approximately four tons per acre. In addition to the irrigated lands on the ranch, there are approximately 1,050 acres of dry or sub-irrigated meadows, 2,910 acres of rangeland, and 1,840 acres of timberland. A full-set of functional, well-maintained residential and agricultural improvements are offered. The owner has spent significant capital to remodel and upgrade the existing homes on the ranch as well as install or improve miles of fence, irrigation infrastructure, and operating improvements. |
