940 Acres of Recreational Land & Farm for Sale in Fairview, Utah

The Cabin Hollow Ranch is situated on the top of the Wasatch Plateau mountain range in central Utah, surrounded by the 1.4 million acre Manti-LaSal National Forest, and accessed from the famed "Skyline Drive". As one of the largest private land holdings on this entire mountain range, this rare block of private land runs from 8,000 feet to over 9,500 feet in elevation. The landscapes of the Skyline Ranch are dominated by large healthy aspen stands, punctuated by dense pines on its northern exposures, and by large alpine meadows which sweep across its gentle plateau-like topography. The numerous lush canyon bottoms are full of springs and small creeks, and miles of Gooseberry Creek runs directly through a portion of this ranch, and miles of this stream are easily accessed from the ranch downstream, but requires miles of hiking for the public. Gooseberry Creek offers excellent fly fishing for surprisingly large cutthroat and rainbow trout that reach over 20" in length, which flourish in its cold and clear high-mountain waters. Lake fishing for larger trout can also be enjoyed within walking distance of the ranch border, in the well-stocked Gooseberry Reservoir located on National Forest land. The Skyline Ranch protects areas considered critical for elk calving, and the large resident elk herds that inhabit the ranch through late fall offer some of the best hunting opportunities for trophy elk in all of Central Utah. This area is also a favorite of many trophy mule deer hunting, largely due to the areas jaw-dropping alpine aesthetics.
