Section 36, ~623 acres, nearly 1 square mile of pristine wilderness with an estimated 25000 MBF of Douglas Fir, and only 2.5 miles to Hwy 199 and Gasquet, CA. An extremely rare find to have this size of acreage with such a short distance to town. From ridge-top chaparral with Ocean and Mountain peak views to lush fern canyons with enormous old growth and secret garden waterfalls, Section 36 is an awe-inspiring property to explore. The easy access, gentle rolling grade topography, 4G cell service, and low property taxes create a multitude of opportunities. Whether one wants a strategic land investment, ranch potential, subdivision development opportunity, business opportunity, or simply a new off-grid adventure for life enrichment, Section 36 encompasses it all and more. Miles of upgraded, graveled roads create access through the property.
Additionally, there are many more miles of 4WD accessible roads to the far reaches of the property. French Hill is an area known for Timber and Gold. Section 36 has been selectively harvested sustainably over the decades, resulting in a healthy forest with stands of staggered-aged Douglas Fir and a plethora of diversity. Roads on USFS maps that lead to the Lind Gold Mine are protected by Section 36, and there are also USGS Gold reports for the property itself. Del Norte County, for TPZ, may consider the division of parcels of 20 acres or more. Potential uses: Residential, Grazing, Mining, Equestrian, Public Park, Recreation and more. Contact the Del Norte Community Planning dept for more information.
