Water:
The property has three year-round creeks, Wolf Creek, Pilcher Creek and Daley Creek, and several seasonal creeks running throughout. All the creeks eventually drain into the Powder River System. There are also six ponds and numerous springs throughout the property.
Timber:
The Wolf Creek Ranch has been managed for timber production and the site productivity of the property is average to above-average for eastern Oregon timber lands. The owners have practiced selective cutting over the years, so it provides good cover and food for many kinds of wildlife. The principal timber species is Ponderosa Pine, with lesser stands of Douglas Fir, White Fir, Tamarack and Lodge Pole Pine. An actual timber cruise has not been made recently.
Grazing/Fencing:
The grazing is leased on a year-to-year basis. Historically, the ranch sustains 250 AUMs from June through October. The grass is wellbalanced with stubble heights monitored to adequate levels. The tenant is responsible for all fence repairs. The fence condition is good. In the early months of the grazing season, an abundance of seasonal streams supply ample water. In the later months, the ranch's sporadically scattered large ponds and springs become the main sources of water. The past years of strategic logging have created excellent range growth conditions, providing a nice blend of open growing areas along with ample shade for livestock. *
Recreation and Wildlife:
This unique property is a very well located hunting property and in a good recreational unit in Northeastern Oregon. With creeks, timber, meadows and open areas this property provides peace and quiet without interference from the outside world for the owner and the wildlife.
The hunting is exceptional for deer, elk, and turkey. There is cougar, bear, bobcats and a host of other small wildlife. Grouse provide additional bird hunting. The land has been managed for deer and elk. Bulls over the 325 mark are seen on the property.
Located in the Starkey Wildlife Management Unit, the ranch qualifies for eight (4) Landowner Preference Tags (LOP) under the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife guidelines.
The mule deer habitat is balanced with rim rocks and timbered sidehills. The elk habitat is exceptional, with good cover in the timber and lots of meadows for grazing. Water is balanced throughout.
This land provides additional opportunities for recreation, such as snowmobiling, cross country skiing, horseback riding, four-wheeling, and bike riding or hiking.
Multiple recreational water sources include Wolf Creek, Pilsner Creek and Daley Creek along with one pond stocked with trout and catfish.
Zoning:
The zoning pertaining to the Wolf Creek Ranch is A-2 Agricultural, Grazing Zone, which has a minimum parcel size of 160 acres. The purpose of the A-2 Zone is to protect and maintain agricultural lands for farm use, consistent with existing and future needs for agricultural products. The A-2 Zone is also intended to allow other uses that are compatible with agricultural activities, to protect forests, scenic resources and fish and wildlife habitat. It is also the purpose of the A-2 Zone to qualify farms for farm use valuation under the provisions of ORS Chapter 308.
