WILDLIFE & WATER
On-site/area wildlife includes cougar, bear, deer, moose, hawk and more while Priest Creek (seasonal) runs through the property / multiple water licenses available, along with a secured well-head (drilled and originally proven in 2003) On-site waterfall measures over 70 feet while a professionally-installed, and storm-rated culvert (6ft in diameter) preserves main road access during spring run-off period.
ACCESS & BOUNDARIES
Drive to the 80 acres from June Springs Road via a 3.5 km one-time FSR (forest services road) that has been officially removed from the park’s boundaries. This non-status road, while providing unimpeded access for more than forty years, requires only formal survey and proper application to achieve full status as a recognized roadway, thus preserving “developer’s choice” with regards to level/detail/quality of the permanent access ultimately desired.
The 80 acres itself is traversable via multiple on-parcel roads and numerous trails, including an all-new roadway carved in 2021 to further improve access. Full land survey to confirm corners and overall boundaries (also completed in 2021) is available on request.
SERVICES
Property is officially rated OFF-GRID, yet single-phase power is available from providers if desired, based on a “per pole” cost estimate. Surrounding area is used extensively by hikers / bikers and horseback riders while main access to property is gated and secured.
