The Taos trail runs through the property with an old Trading post from 1866. But the hidden gem is the 20 Million tons of assayed gravel. A MUST SEE! HRG Ranch is a UNIQUE opportunity to own a multifaceted property in the fertile Huerfano River Valley that boasts 1698+/- acres. This offering includes all the equipment, a ranch manager's house, a 40x60 shop, and a huge 80x160x42 tall hay barn. All mineral rights including gas and oil are included. This ranch straddles both sides of the Huerfano River for over 3 miles, but it's real uniqueness comes from its multiple resources and it's long-term income potential. Starting with water. VERY UNIQUE WATER! HRG is the largest shareholder on the ditch; owning approx. 20% (830/4000 shares) of the Welton Land and Water Co. (possessing the Senior Killian water right) and being the first head gate on the ditch, makes this a premier property. But what really sets it apart are the 6 adjudicated wells that are augmented through CWPDA, all have an "Absolute Right" to pump anywhere from 200-745 GPM/well and anywhere from 145-465 AF/Calendar Year per well. One of these wells is labeled a "Sump" which allows for an entirely different and unique set of opportunities. This Ranch uses these abundant water resources to irrigate 400+/- fertile acres alongside the Huerfano River and roughly 80 of those acres are watered by a center pivot sprinkler that is set up to be supplied by either ditch water or augmented water from the sump irrigation well. Abundant crops have been grown in these fields from alfalfa hay, corn, cane, onions, flax, wheat and barely just to name a few. Summers are hot and the growing season is long in this valley and with winter water and these water rights, it makes for some unique growing opportunities. They have been known to get 5 and 6 cuttings of alfalfa some years and one year they recalled bailing on Christmas day. The property is completely fenced and an electric fence runs through the center, allowing for grazing only along the river bottom and there is plenty of natural grassland for winter grazing. The bonus resource of this property and the one that should tip the scales (no pun intended) towards a purchase, is across the river in them there bluffs. Over 20,000,000 tons of high quality…
