attracts both elk and deer. There are numerous
opportunities to develop a private hunting retreat
along ridge tops overlooking the Desolation Creek
Drainage in the southeast section of the property.
Currently, the property is leased through 2014
to three ranchers for grazing purposes, and gen-
erates an annual income of $20,232 for a total of
1,685 AUMS, at a rate of $12 per AUM. These leas-
es may be terminated or re-negotiated by the new
owner upon sale of the property.
Historically, a number of creek-front cabins were
built along the north bank of Desolation Creek.
There are two remaining private in-holdings with
cabins still on the property. An old hunters’ cabin
in disrepair remains in the southwest section.Addi-
tional cabins or campgrounds could be developed
by a new owner along Desolation Creek in order
to take advantage of easy accessibility and vehicle
traffic on USFS Road 10 to Olive Lake, a popular
campground ten miles south of the property.
