The Farris Ranch comprises 170+/- acres, with a mix of ponds, 80+/- acres of lush hay fields, and pasture. The ranch backs up to landlocked BLM allowing an owner additional acres to recreate on. The Farris Ranch has senior water rights which gives the owner the first right of fill for the main 5+/- acre pond. This is for both the Spring and Fall which ensures that the pond has water year-round. There is a winterized pump house that can supply water to the livestock corrals through a frost-free system. This system allows an owner to water livestock from the well or the pond all at the owner’s discretion.
Water Rights are through The New Multa Trina Ditch Company
The Ranch consists of 3 parcels and could potentially be split into five 35 acre lots.

Recreation
The Farris Ranch is in Colorado Big Game Unit 42 and qualifies for Landowner Elk and Deer Licenses. This region of Colorado offers great Mule deer, and Elk hunting. Hunting on the Farris Ranch would be good during all legal seasons from September through the late rifle seasons. Waterfowl hunting on the pond and adjacent hayfields backed with the views of the mountains gives an owner a rare opportunity to hunt ducks and geese in the mountains.
The ponds provide fishing opportunities for all levels and could be turned into a Blue Ribbon private fishery. The pond habitat is suited to grow large native Rainbow, Brown and Cut-throat trout.
World class trout fishing is located just minutes away on the famed Colorado River.
Agriculture
The water rights on the Farris Ranch allow an owner to irrigate the hay fields throughout the summer irrigation season. The owners have enjoyed great production with two cuttings a year. The ranch has a complete perimeter fence, along with multiple cross fences that allow for different grazing practices. The main livestock barn is set up with cattle working facilities, including runways, tubs, and squeeze chutes.
