Spring is here and road grading has been completed. Weed spraying will commence soon and hopefully will be timed with good weather. We will be sterilizing the same as we did the last 2 years to control the Russian Thistle. Or at least reduce its growth capabilities. This is a nasty weed that can be very invasive and a fire hazard.

The gate physical receivers have been supported with a much more robust solution than the dry rotted wood originally installed. These will get painted sometime this summer. We will add photos to the photo page in the near future so everyone can understand what these are. Essentially, everything that was originally wood on the gate and entrances are now solid materials that do not combust unless we plan on making lava. 

The cabana is now up and running following the winterization, but not without repairs to the water lines. We just installed a respective blow out to provide a more adequate way to ensure winterizing is thorough.

The flicker damage on the back cabana storage room walls has been repaired and will soon be stained to complete this project. We will add photos to the cabana page illustrating the before and after photos.

All roads have been sterilized by our weed sprayer. This is a much more of a potent weed killer since the Russian thistle and other unwanted weeds have been increasing for the last several  years. It is also very expensive, but was warranted. The spring rains have actually helped  saturate the ingredients into the ground making them more effective. We hope to have a better year in tis regard.

We also had our road grade provider remove as much Russian Thistle as possible and burn it off site. This took several days worth and looks much better. There  is still an abundance of Russian Thistle  in different areas  since it gets blown to kingdom come whenever the wind picks up.

All is well at the ranch following this summer. Several parcel transactions have been made with the high interest of our location. Several construction designs have been submitted and approved.

If you have a summer camping trailer on the ranch, you must remove it. Please review the CC&R's and understand what is permitted.

Thank you.

The snow is finally melted for the most part, which means road grading and weed spraying will be planned once we receive some rain. Please look for these updates on the Road and Gates tab when we have further information.

In regards to the winter, we received a respectable amount of snow which tested our new snow removal service. We considered this to be successful and look forward to this type of service moving forward. As more homes are built we will adjust our road coverage to accommodate winter access for those locations.

Please specific updates for each page for the cabana, Roads and gates, etc.

The county is intending to complete a purchase of a large acreage of Hunter Mountain across from the ranch to open itself a rock mine. The purpose is for county roads, but the operation we feel will be at the local residence expense ( ie: us ) Please see the owner's page for these updates.

The current ranch condition is in good shape. The post road grading surface condition is excellent, with only surviving weeds in places. The Russian Thistle is expected to linger, but is much better than last year. Please expect the Road and gate updates on the respective page moving forward.

A very quiet Independence Day at the ranch, but probably due to the Wednesday holiday. For the owners and guests that were here, they received a nice Airforce C-17 Flyby around Buckhorn Mt. A benefit of the nearby parade.

Finally the website is up! Why the change? Basically, the previous web builder we had went South a year or more ago and wouldn't permit updates etc. So...........what did we do? We fired them, went to the painstaking measure of transferring the domain registration, and then built the new site on GoDaddy. We hope you enjoy the new site and help add content for the association. If you have any photos or news, please send to the webmaster email listed at the bottom of each page and we will add it to the respective page.

Please see updates on the other pages as we will try and keep road updates on the road page and cabana updates on the cabana page. Imagine that..........organization!

In other news, the annual HOA Dues went out in June and are due today. Please be sure to send your check in ASAP to help operate our terrific ranch. 

Please note: The Owners page is not quite set up yet, but when complete it will be used to provide details pertinent to the operation of the ranch and owner responsibilities. We plan on keeping this site more dynamic with information with your support. Afterall, this is your ranch.

More to come later. Please enjoy!
