Property Facts
A vast 17,300-acre sanctuary in eastern Utah includes spectacular river frontage, endless opportunities for recreation and hunting in addition to significant natural resources. Surrounded by over one million acres of public land, the ranch contains miles of roads and trails, including well maintained county roads, 2-tracks and game trails. The north end of the ranch boasts 3 ½ miles of White River frontage with ideal locations for primitive cabin or camp sites. The larger, southern, 14,500-acre Evacuation Creek section of the ranch is home to historic mining and railway communities and provides endless opportunities for recreation including mountain biking, ATV riding, hiking, and camping. The accessibility and topography of the ranch provides a blank slate on which to develop a recreation and trail master plan for multiple uses. The property hosts a variety of unique wildlife including bison and wild mustangs plus the ranch provides critical winter habitat for migrating elk and deer. The White River Ranch is a strong candidate for Utah's Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit (CWMU) program which provides guaranteed big game hunting permits to private property owners. Deposition and subsequent erosion of Mesozoic rock layers in eastern Utah has created a unique location for study by paleontologists from all over the world. Most excavation and research of dinosaurs and other fossils in Utah is conducted through permits from the Bureau of Land Management or other public agencies. Ownership of 17,000 acres in this part of Utah provides a private treasure trove for fossil hunters to explore. Additionally, the property contains one of the largest privately owned oil shale blocks in the United States with significant resource potential. Ownership of such an asset may provide considerable economic return to the next owner.
