Detailed Description:

Over 650 acres of sub-dividable land currently operating as a successful, self-sustaining cattle ranch that produces an average of 1000 tons of hay harvest annually with room for expansion.
This real estate includes 5 completely exclusive and separate range units totalling roughly ½ million acres, full line of all new top quality John Deere farm and ranch equipment, and all “Roll Moves” Wade Rain irrigation electric powered pump equipment capable of irrigating 220+ acres.

Current owners received the 1991 Top Commercial Breeder Award from the Simmental Association of British Columbia and presently run 350 Simmental Angus cross cow/calf pairs year round with room for expansion.

This ranch has been family owned and developed for three generations since 1927. The Shortreeds have been responsible for the operation of the ranch for over 30 years and are now considering retirement. Due to the size of this ranching venture the current operators offer a fee negotiable option to remain as consultants for up to one year after sale of the ranch to assist the new owner with running of the operations including locating and hiring a qualified ranch management team.

The Kleena Kleene (Klinaklini) River flows through the property and the scenic mountainous surroundings make this estate an excellent choice for a variety of uses or development. Situated close to schools and on bus route with medical clinic in nearby Tatla Lake.

There is abundant wildlife on the property; moose, deer, cariboo, cougar, black, and grizzly bear. Lots of game birds and small animals like wolf, coyote and fox as well. Some people even say elk and whitetail are moving back into the area. If you go far enough up the mountain there are bighorn sheep.

The house, built in about 1965, is very large and recently re-fit with new "energy smart" windows, new flooring and soon to have propane heat as well as the wood furnace.

The nearest airport is in Anahim Lake, which is about an hour away and offers daily flights to Bella Coola and Vancouver. There is a landing strip at nearby privately owned Chilanko lodge. Floatplanes land at nearby Clearwater Lake and Nimpo Lake. If someone were interested there is even plenty of space for a landing strip right here on the property.

Government land surrounding (Crown land) is almost everywhere. The mountains here are beautiful and are easily accessed by horseback, ATV or on foot. We have over 1/2 million acres in grazing rights. All of that land is Crown.

Fantastic cross-country skiing is everywhere. The closest actual downhill skiing centre would be Mt. Timothy just outside of 100 Mile House about 4 hours from here. Whitesaddle Air, about an hour and a half from here, does occasionally provide "heli-skiing" packages.
