In the spring they would move the cows onto the BLM allotments and then move them higher up into the forest permit and then bring them back down to winter on the deeded. Hunting-The ranch is located in hunting unit 42 with over the counter elk tags and qualifying for multiple deer vouchers annually. This is an excellent hunting ranch for both deer and elk. The ranch is loaded with deer all seasons and the bucks really load up on the ranch in the fall. The elk hunting is excellent as well for all seasons. It is very obvious at first look the ranch is excellent for archery as there are rubs and torn up trees up and down the ranch. The ranch has even more elk move in later on as they move off of the forest. The turkey hunting is also excellent as the ranch is loaded with birds including grouse. Location-Location is the key!! The Hyrup Ranch is located within 5 miles of the I70 and under 10 miles from the towns of Battlement Mesa and Parachute.Grand Junction and the Grand Junction regional airport is within 40 minutes. Powderhorn ski resort is within 45 minutes. The Ranch has very easy year around access with mild winters located in both Garfield and Mesa counties. Unencumbered by conservation easements the Hyrup Ranch would make a great candidate. From the self sustaining cattle operation to the excellent hunting the Hyrup Ranch is a must see!
