About This Land

This offering represents a rare opportunity to own one of only five private parcels along the isolated 24-mile stretch of Rock Creek as it flows from the High Uinta Mountains through sacred Ute Tribal Lands to its confluence with the Duchesne River. Of all the properties we have brokered over the last decade, this one boasts some of the most incredible views we have ever seen. It is also extremely private, with no neighbors or buildings as far as the eye can see. The owner enjoys the only private access to this stretch, known for its thriving brown, rainbow, brook, and cutthroat trout population. An exhilarating ride down a private ATV trail (with 14 switchbacks) drops you into the stunning isolated canyon 600 feet below. There, among the towering cottonwoods, an angler can work the undercut banks of Rock Creek without seeing another soul. This property is well suited for an incredible glamping site with multiple terraces and shelves overlooking the astonishing river valley with no sign of civilization in sight for miles. The land here is considered sacred due to its rich history. Rock Creek is the setting for many fantastical legends of lost Spanish gold mines. One of the earliest Spanish missions was located just upstream from the subject property. Bronze church mission bells, Spanish helmets, and swords, and many other artifacts have been discovered and documented. What about hunting? River Whisper Ranch is located in the Yellowstone Unit, which is a general season unit for deer and any bull unit providing bull elk tags over the counter. You wouldn't typically classify 80 acres comprised of mostly rocky cliffs as a great place to hunt, but there are unusual circumstances at play that make this parcel a fantastic hunting location. Small bands of mule deer frequent the abundant hay fields to the east. During the fall, the bucks pull back into the forest on the eastern rim of the property. The bigger bucks head over the edge to bed down along the property's high rock ledges above the river. A wise mule deer buck could not ask for a safer, more desirable habitat. The expansive Ute Indian lands west of the property contain one of the largest herds of elk in Northeastern Utah. The early tribal hunts proceed the Utah State elk hunt and drive the elusive bulls to cross the river onto the listed property to gain access to the same steep ledges that the wisest of bucks occupy. There are only a few spots where elk can cross because of the cliffs, and this property is one of them!
