Description

Step into the raw beauty of Brazos Vista Ranch, a sprawling 2,171-acre hunting property in the heart of Tierra Amarilla, New Mexico. This isn't just land; it's a place where the thrill of the hunt and the spirit of the Southwest converge. Named after the "Yellow Earth" of the Chama River Valley, this ranch offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of New Mexico's rich history, where every corner invites adventure.

 

Brazos Vista Ranch offers an ideal balance of seclusion and accessibility. While the ranch feels like a world apart, it's within driving distance of several regional airports, including Los Alamos (84 miles) and Santa Fe (102 miles). For those traveling from further afield, Durango-La Plata County Airport is 120 miles away, and Albuquerque International Sunport is approximately 140 miles south.

 

The nearby town of Tierra Amarilla serves as more than just a landmark; it's a gateway to the traditions and culture of Northern New Mexico. Known for its historical significance and deep ties to the region, Tierra Amarilla reflects the enduring spirit of the West.

 

Beyond hunting, the area surrounding Brazos Vista Ranch is rich with recreational opportunities. El Vado Lake State Park is a short drive away, offering a serene setting for fishing, boating, and camping. The Rio Chama Wild and Scenic River provides excellent whitewater rafting and fishing for those seeking more adventurous pursuits, attracting outdoor enthusiasts from all over.

 

Winter doesn't mean the end of adventure at Brazos Vista Ranch. The property is near some of the Southwest's best ski and snowboarding destinations. Wolf Creek Ski Area, about 100 miles to the north, is famed for its deep powder and challenging terrain. Taos Ski Valley, roughly 110 miles to the east, is known for its steep runs and unique village atmosphere. For those looking to stay closer to Santa Fe, Ski Santa Fe and Pajarito Mountain offer a variety of trails for all skill levels. These nearby winter sports areas add another layer of appeal to Brazos Vista Ranch, making it a year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

 

Brazos Vista Ranch is a true hunting destination. The diverse terrain, ranging from expansive sagebrush flats to dense, wooded ridges, creates an environment where mule deer and elk thrive. Each fall, as the first snows arrive, the land comes alive with game moving into the ranch's protected meadows. In 2022, the ranch was awarded 25 landowner elk tags and eight mule deer vouchers, underscoring its status as a premier hunting location.

 

The land has been carefully managed over the years, allowing the mule deer population to grow and mature. This commitment to conservation has made Brazos Vista Ranch a sanctuary for wildlife, where hunting traditions are honored and respected. The neighboring ranches share this dedication to stewardship, ensuring that the entire region remains a vital habitat for game.

 

Brazos Vista Ranch is more than a hunting ground; it's a place to immerse yourself in the outdoor life. With breathtaking views over the Jicarilla bluffs, secluded meadows, and serene ponds, the ranch offers an experience that goes beyond the hunt. A 6,000-square-foot barndominium is currently under construction, complete with permits for septic and wells, setting the stage for your personal retreat or hunting lodge.

 

 Brazos Vista Ranch is the opportunity of a lifetime for those who seek a deeper connection to the land and the tradition of the hunt. It's where the wild spirit of the Southwest meets the enduring appeal of a life lived outdoors. Contact us today to learn more or to arrange a private tour.
