Year round, elk, deer and antelope can be seen grazing in the fields. From mid-summer, to fall large numbers of additional elk travel to the ranch from Split and Blue Mountains. Blue Mountain is well known for exceptionally large bulls since it is a draw area. About one-half of the elk that travel to the ranch from these areas are bulls. Most of the bulls are five point or larger.
Some people wait a lifetime to get a trophy elk.
Here, a person can do that each year. A residual herd of about 200 deer live on the ranch year round. The stack yards all have deer and elk high fences. In the spring and fall thousands of geese, ducks, and cranes fly to the ranch during migration. Many stay all summer.
