The property has been logged with stewardship of the land as a top priority. The tree removal that was done allows for gorgeous views of the surrounding valleys and foothills. The new trees were replanted in the spring of 2023. There are stands of mature trees remaining and a seasonal creek that runs through the property. Although not on this parcel, the area has many natural springs.
There are several gently sloping areas of the property that would be perfect for a possible building or campsite, with gorgeous views of the lush green valley below. Power and phone are to the edge of the property. It is currently zoned F, so be sure and check with the governing jurisdictions on your plans. The property would need a well and septic.
