About this property

In the Nez Perce language, the word 'Powwaka' has been translated as 'high, cleared ground, from where a view could be had'. There is no better way to describe the Powwatka Ranch in northeastern Oregon. Located on Powwatka Ridge in the Blue Mountains, about an hour north of Wallowa, Oregon lies 9,457 acres of pristine ranch land, stretching almost 10 miles from north to south. Consisting of approximately 4,800 acres of timber, 650 acres of meadows, and 4,000 acres of canyon lands, nearly two miles of Grande Ronde River frontage, the Powwatka Ranch truly does have it all. Over four decades of intensive, thoughtful land management with a focus on wildlife, water, grassland, and timber health have resulted in what can best be described as a private nature preserve. Manicured forests and lush, expansive meadows cover the upper portion of the ranch, banked by steep canyons and timber lined draws to the river and creeks below. A well maintained road network provides access to all parts of the ranch. Wildlife management has been a priority and the abundance of game provides proof of the countless time and effort spent to create this wildlife haven. Located in the Sled Springs Unit, hundreds of Rocky Mountain Elk make their home on the Powwatka Ranch and neighboring public lands. The fall 'rut' with trophy class big game is a spectacle you must see, and hear, to believe. In addition to the elk herd, mule deer, whitetail deer, black bear, cougar, turkey, grouse, quail, and more can all be found. The ranch is located in the Sled Springs unit and qualifies for 5 landowner preference tag applications each for elk and deer. Water is king in the west and the Powwatka Ranch is blessed with an abundance of it. The ranch has almost 6 1/2 miles of live water; approximately 1 2/3 miles of Grande Ronde River frontage; almost 3 miles of Mud Creek; 1 1/4 miles of Wildcat Creek; and 3/4 mile of Buck Creek. The Grande Ronde River is the northern border for most of the ranch and is home to a well known fishery for trout, bass, salmon, and more. Numerous springs and ponds are located throughout the ranch, providing reliable year round sources for both wildlife and cattle. Numerous improvements are located throughout the ranch. Lodging includes an owner's home, two large duplex style guest cabins, managers home, ranch hand home, and guest duplex. Combined, the homes contain 19 total bedrooms to provide plenty of room for family, friends, and employees. Other structures include: shop building, horse barn, 2 equipment sheds, 4 hay barns, historic livestock barn, working corrals, several homestead structures, as well as a game processing building and smokehouse. The highlight of the improvements is the 2,950' paved runway, complete with two aircraft hangars. Breathtaking scenery, abundant water, trophy class wildlife, and quality improvements perfectly complement each other to create a genuine legacy ranch property. The Powwatka Ranch is an extraordinary offering that is truly 'one of a kind'. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the jewels of the American west!

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
