The Mundy Buck, holder of four world records, is back with the Mundy Ranch! Legacy Mule Deer never die, they just get larger as the story is passed from generation to generation. Not sure how much larger the widest buck ever entered into the Boone and Crocket (49.5 inches) can get, but the story surrounding this incredible +/-2880 acres ranch (Chama, NM) is certainly one for the record book! If one looks between Canada and Mexico, it would be very difficult to find a more strikingly beautiful, well-watered, big game mecca than the Mundy Ranch & Mountain Estate! This incredible, diverse holding, located about 10 minutes south of Chama and about 2 hours north of Santa Fe, New Mexico, could easily star in its very own historic documentary. The terrain varies from a mild +/-7500 ft. to 9000 ft., with staggered benches of Gambel oak andmassive Ponderosa pine-lined meadows that step up to stands of sub-alpine aspens. If water is the gold, then the Mundy Ranch is Ft Knox, with over a dozen bodies of water and several stocked with year-round aerators supporting rainbows up to 5 pounds. Don't forget that fly rod! There's paved highway and front-gate access, along with exclusive mid-ranch access for the Mundy Ranch owner through the neighboring Ticonderoga ranch. The Buck The Mundy Buck, 300+ inches, holder of four world records, including the widest ever (49.5 inches), longest main frame, largest main frame at 246, and by the water displacement method (Burkett System), number 1 in the world, is back with the ranch as of August 2024! (See attached story.) The seller felt the Mundy Buck belonged with the ranch and is proud to convey the buck with the ownership! There has never been a copy or duplicate made of the Mundy Buck. Hunters Cabin Located mid-ranch, as to allow one to wake up with the animals, is the total off-grid hunters cabin, complete with indoor plumbing, solar system, and back up generator. Serviced by propane and solar, the furnished cabin features a brand new solar system, kitchen, a full bath and an outdoor porch with grill. Providing absolute stealth, located on the edge of a large meadow and several water holes, the Hunters Cabin is perfect for 's'mores camping experience' for generations to come from grandparents to grandkids. Mundy Mountain Estate Miles of ranch roads access the ranch, allowing for incredible hiking, mountain biking, ATV/UTV and snowmobile riding in the winter months. Years ago, originally split off from the Mundy Ranch, the +/- 3000 acres of the adjacent Ticonderoga Ranch was developed into mountain estates, complete with electric gated access and underground power. Parcels were as little as 2 acres up to 35 acres. Three of the these mountain estates were secured by the owner, located about 700 yds. from a private gate accessing midway into the Mundy Ranch, about halfway up the mountain, providing access to the very heartof the ranch, and miles of ranch access roads without interfering with any of the game bedding or feeding areas. Along with the 360 degree views, the recently remodeled +/-4000 sq. ft. Mundy Mountain Estate offers +/-4 bedrooms, 3 baths, a 2 car garage, three-sided decks, granite kitchen with stainless appliances and is mostly furnished. Road maintenance, including snow removal and electric gate access, is included in the annual HOA dues of +/- $1700. Located in the prime heart of Big Game Unit 4, documented as one of the highest density elk herds in the country, the Mundy Ranch has experienced very little hunting the last 2 years - only one bull elk harvested as the owner has been too busy to utilize the property. The ranch is absolutely flush with mature bulls and bucks... All hunting rights covey for 2026. In a recent New Mexico Chapter of the Dallas Safari Club Gala, held in Albuquerque, there were 39 world-class trophy mule deer bucks displayed, called theNew Mexico Trophy Wall of Fame. Eleven of those bucks were reported to have come from the Mundy Ranch! The Mundy Ranch has been meticulously managed for trophy big game the last decade, and hardly hunted the last 3 years due to the owners business schedule. 180' to 200' mule deer are seen annually, 300+ bull elk and the ranch manager has reported elk in the 360+ range. The Mundy Ranch has been enrolled into the New Mexico Landowner Incentive Mule Deer tag program. (Normally two late season tags, but always check regs.) Unit 4 has historically reported 100% draw on regular season landowner mule deer tags, noting the application deadline is mid March each year. B&C mule deer are seen on the Mundy ranch annually, with Rio Arriba County, NM documenting more entries in the Boone & Crockett Mule Deer Record Book than any county in North America every decade since 1960! THE RANCH RECEIVED 21 LANDOWNER ELK TAGS FOR LAST YEAR, INCLUDING 15 BULL TAGS. TAGS FOR 2026 WILL CONVEY. The ranch also supports a healthy Merriams turkey population, black bear (all 4 color phases), blue grouse and small game population, with over-the-counter tags. If trophy mule deer or mature bull elk are one of your requirements, this area is sought after as oneof the most desirable areas in the country, carrying one of the highest elk and mule deer densities as there are NO timber wolves (or plans to release them), NO winter kill and NO grizzly bears to affect your landowner big game tag allotment. The ranch has been managed exclusively for trophy mule deer and mature bull elk with habitat improvements such as food plots and feeders. Two brand new Polaris 1500 Ranger Extremes, Northstar Crew Cabs, will convey with the ranch at closing. Fishing With several of the small lakes and ponds on wind and solar aeration, these trout-stocked ponds carry the trout even through the winter. Trout up to 5 pounds are stocked in the ponds allowing for an incredible day with family, friends and VIP guests. Also part of the ranch has full recreational rights to the adjacent +/-3000 acre Ticonderoga Ranch with numerous stocked ponds and the most desirable two miles of Chavez Creek with incredible live-water fishing that easily provides for forty fishing days. With G5 jet-capable airport (Pagosa Springs), there's a hospital, a Walmart and over 30 restaurants an hour away. Wolf Creek Ski Mountain is +/- 90 minutes and Taos is +/- 2 hours. Turn-keyproperties such as the historic Mundy Ranch, with over 10 years of trophy mule deer and mature bull elk management in place, complete with a furnished Mountain Estate, the world-record Mundy Buck, along with two brand-new Polaris Ranger Extreme 1500 Northstars, stand unmatched. There's simply nothing else comparable. Call or email today for more information and your qualified showing, Co brokers welcome.

Ripple Valley Ranch is +-410 acre and is an absolutely premier, world-class sporting property. It features 1.4 miles of both sides of the San Juan River that has been meticulously enhanced throughout. This incredibly rare property holds trophy-class trout along with incredible mule deer and excellent elk makes it a top-tier holding.Ripple Valley Ranch spans +/-410 acres with diverse terrain. The river bottom covers 90 acres, including 48 acres of irrigated hay meadows and deciduous tree row, all watered by an underground sprinkler system for efficient operation. The rest of the ranch provides prime habitat for mule deer and elk, featuring mountainous land with Ponderosa Pine, Pinyon Pine, Rocky Mountain Juniper, Cottonwood, Aspen and Gambel Oak. These areas are incredible staging areas for the big game to make their way to the irrigated meadows. The mountains rise quickly from the river and valley floor to create an almost dizzying beauty. In addition to the classic Southern Colorado awe-inspiring views, the dense tree covered peaks on the south side of the river provide cover for varied large game animals. The northern side of the river is overseen by more rocky ledges and less dense vegetation on the mountainside. The Fall color contrast of the various trees throughout the valley and along the river is incredible. The property features a span bridge that crosses the entire river and makes fishing, hunting, farming and simple enjoyment of the entire property a breeze. Built to last with steel beams and wood decking, this bridge is wide enough and strong enough to accommodate ATVs and small farm tractors and implements. This impressive structure also makes a wonderful spot to relax over top of the rushing water while watching the sunrise or sunset over the rocky peaks of the San Juan Mountains rising up from the river valley. The property includes two residences: a main home and a riverfront cabin. There is also an additional residential building envelope available. Please note that while the property is subject to a conservation easement, it allows for a total of three residences, which should be more than adequate for the property's needs. Built in 2006, the main house is a one story home that is 1,960 sf. It has 3 bedrooms and two full baths. It has been updated and is in good overall condition. Many of the rooms in this home are specifically situated to provide wonderful window views of the river, including the master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, great room and kitchen. There is a extra large deck on the back of the home that also overlooks the river. This is a wonderful place the enjoy a cup of morning coffee with the nearby sights and sounds of the San Juan River. The secondary home is a two story, riverfront cabin of 2,173 square foot with its own detached, 2 car garage. This cabin boasts 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The bedrooms are all large and provide extra elbow room. Both the interior and exterior exude a rustic charm that fits well on the ranch. There are laminate floors throughout the main floor and a native stone, wood-burning fireplace in the living room to provide both warmth and ambiance on a cool evening. This residence also comes furnished. The property includes three outbuildings for working on and storing equipment and/or vehicles. Finally, the property is well fenced with good, tight barbed wire and gates at each of the homes, providing both privacy and protection. The San Juan River further enhances the ranch's ecological value, serving as a perennial water source and providing critical habitat and cover for big game. The river is home to 11 fish species along this stretch, including the roundtail chub-a Colorado state species of concern, and the federally threatened Colorado pikeminnow. The river has undergone comprehensive enhancements, including the strategic placement of casting rocks, spawning beds, and deep stretches aimed at supporting substantial populations of trophy brown and rainbow trout. Some brook trout, the rare San Juan cutthroat trout and the occasional bass can also be caught in the river. In total, more than 1300 boulders have been added to this stretch of river during the restoration process. The waterway's design is considered among the finest in the state. Considerable investments have been dedicated to promoting river health, such as channel enhancement initiatives that narrow specific sections and establish additional pool and riffle habitats. The ranch sits at the center of a vital fall migration corridor, providing forage that sustains local wildlife. Each year, between up to 15,000 mule deer pass through the property as they travel to their winter range near Navajo Reservoir. Elk also rely on this southern migration route to remain uninterrupted. While elk use the property year-round, their numbers increase significantly in the fall and winter months. During winter, groups of up to 200 elk can often be seen gathered in the hayfields. There are several box blinds on the property (both ground level and elevated) so you are ready to hunt on day one. The San Juan River is the dividing line between Game Management Units 771 and 78, so portions of the ranch reside in each unit. As of 2025, both units allow for Over The Counter Elk tags for 2nd and 3rd Rifle Seasons. Over The Counter Bear tags are also available as an add-on to archery or muzzleloader deer and/or elk tags. There is also a private land only, late season doe tag available in these units. Ripple Valley Ranch hosts a substantial population of Merriam's Turkey, which are present on the property throughout the year, providing an additional opportunity for hunting on the ranch. The riparian corridor further supports specialized bird species, including the federally listed western yellow-billed cuckoo and the southwestern willow flycatcher. Canadian geese and various species of ducks often visit the property and use the river as well. There is also a +/-.2 acre, lined pond that sits high above the river on the north hillside and provides additional fishing and wildlife watering opportunities. The ranch's irrigated wheat fields are watered by underground pipe using a combination of sprinklers and side rolls . The irrigated ground used to be in an alfalfa grass mix that would produce +-1,000 small bales, however the owner has transitioned to a wheat crop that is used to provide feed for the wildlife on the property.
