Catron County - 25 Choate Dr., Pie Town, NM
The expansive and diverse 19,139 +/- acre Sawtooth Basin Ranch is nestled in the scenic and remote landscape of Pie Town, New Mexico and has spectacular geographical features rising from New Mexico's rolling pinyon/juniper floor to its majestic sawtooth-figured peaks and valleys. With breathtaking views, abundant wildlife, and rich history, this property offers an unparalleled opportunity to own a legendary premier elk hunting ranch, providing the tranquility of wide-open spaces in Catron County, New Mexico. Catron County is well known to produce record-sized elk and is in the heart of some of the best trophy elk hunting in the United States. Trophy mule deer reaching record book size have also been harvested on this property. Pronghorn Antelope frequent the ranch and have grown record-sized horns.Total acreage is comprised of 16,833 +/- deeded acres, 1,960 +/- acres of State Trust Land Lease, and 346 +/- acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Lease. The central and east portion of the ranch is within Game Management Unit (GMU) 13, consisting of approximately 13,914 +/- deeded acres, while the west portion is within GMU 12, consisting of approximately 2,919+/- deeded acres. Both big game units are known to produce some of the largest free-range antlered bull elk anywhere!The Ranch is currently signed up in the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish's Landowner Private Land Elk Program (EPLUS). In 2024 the property received 16 Mature Bull (MB) Elk Landowner Authorizations, 13 Archery Either Sex (ES) Elk Landowner Authorizations and 11 Antlerless Landowner Authorizations. Private land Mule Deer and Pronghorn hunting licenses are unlimited over the counter, allowing for the landowner to determine how many Deer and Pronghorn hunters to allow to meet management goals.Management practices and habitat improvements have enhanced the health and carrying capacity of the property to increase elk numbers and the elk use on the property. Mule deer, pronghorn, black bear and other wildlife species have benefitted from the conservation work that has been done for elk. In 2023, only three elk licenses were validated, and in 2024, only four elk licenses were validated with a harvest success rate of 100% for both years. The age class of elk bulls on the ranch has increased due to the very low number of elk authorizations used over the last two years. Forest management consisted of thinning and mastication of overgrown pinyon and juniper trees on approximately 500 acres where treatment was conducted in a mosaic pattern to reduce woody vegetation. Two large hydraulic axe machines were used to grind and masticate trees, stimulating new forb, brush and grass growth in the treated area. By reducing the canopy cover, increasing water availability and sunlight, new forbs, browse and grasses have responded by growing in these areas. Elk, mule deer and pronghorn use on the new growth was immediate and favorable to them.In 2024, the Sawtooth Basin Ranch was awarded on incentive mule deer license for all the habitat improvement contributions that was valid during the mule deer rut timeframe, aside from the regular structured hunt seasons by the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish.The largest set of elk sheds known to be found on the ranch had an unofficial gross score of 424 inches.In addition to being a spectacular hunting ranch, the property would sustain a full-scale livestock operation if so desired. Water is distributed throughout the ranch and native grasses are abundant across the property. A new eight +/- mile underground waterline and 8 new water drinkers have been installed to disperse permanent water across the ranch expanding this valuable resource to needed areas. The water storage tanks at the commercial well have a capacity to hold 24,000+/- gallons of water with an additional 10,000+/--gallon water storage tank placed on the south side of the ranch.There are five water wells on the ranch, one of which is a rare commercial well permitted for 25-acre feet of diversion annually. This is significantly higher than the amount of diversion permitted by most domestic wells, which is 3 acres annually. This commercial well sets this ranch apart from others in the area, providing much-needed water.The ranch boasts evidence of prehistoric Native American existence on the property can be found throughout. Pottery shards, arrowheads and grinding stones have and can be found on the property.Housing on the ranch consists of a 3,400+/- sq/ft main house, a 600+/- sq/ft cabin, a 900+/- sq/ft mountain cabin and a 1,232+/- sq/ft manufactured foreman's house.

Catron County - 2268 Highway 12, Aragon, NM
Owner/Broker. Outstanding opportunity of a ranch and hunting paradise directly backed up to the Gila Wilderness in the highly appraised Big Game Unit 16-D. This ranch runs 30+ head of cattle plus 30+ sheep on 110+ sub irrigated acres. Tularosa Creek runs from Aragon through the ranch's entire length above ground from September-March and sub-irrigates the ranch from April-August by running below ground. The Govina Wash runs seasonally through the other 12 acres and irrigates the ranch when it runs. The ranch backs up to Gila and Apache National Forests along its south and north boundaries.
The main ranch house is an approximately 3,500sf historic adobe house from 1905, with a stick built cabin style addition. There are 4 bedrooms (one is upstairs and small), 3 baths (1xfull, 1x3/4 & 1x1/2 baths), and 2 guest houses: a 1,000sf 1 bedroom, 3/4 bath across the yard from the main residence, as well as a 1,680sf 3 bedroom, 3/4 bath guest house at the south boundary to National Forest ("Canyon House"). The main residence and bunkhouse have covered patios, and all the houses feature wood burning stoves in the main bedrooms, in the living/dining areas, and there is a built in fireplace in each of the downstairs bedrooms (master & guest bedrooms). The kitchens in the main residence as well as the Canyon House are heated by antique wood burning cooking ranges.

Catron County - Alma, NM
Stradling the New Mexico and Arizona border near the communities of Alma, NM and Alpine, AZ, the Alma Mesa Ranch offers a rare opportunity to own an historic National Forest cow/calf operation with an impressive carrying capacity of 682 pairs + 18 horse/mule. This robust and productive ranch benefits from its ideal blend of strong feed, ample water sources, and natural cover making it a prime choice for serious cattle operations.
The Forest allotment lies within the Gila National Forest on the New Mexico side and the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest on the Arizona side with elevations ranging from 5,400 to 8,200 with the majority of the allotment under the 7,000 mark offering a gentle climate of cooler summers and mild winters. The allotment encompasses 46,423 acres anchored by 87.7 deeded acres.
The ranch features a host of well-maintained improvements designed to streamline and enhance operations:
Facilities:
A comfortable 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch house with a full front porch, offering a serene place to relax after a days work.
An office with a half bath, ideal for managing the day-to-day business of the ranch.
State-of-the-art working facilities, designed by Temple Grandin, include pipe fences, scales, a covered hydraulic squeeze chute with palpation cage, sorting pens, working alleys, and both semi and gooseneck loading facilities.
Secure holding facilities made from durable pipe and wire.
A fully equipped shop with a bath and an adjacent bunkhouse for ranch hands or guests.
Hay barn for ample feed storage.
Three cube hoppers for efficient feed management.
A saddle shed to keep tack organized and protected.
Water is plentiful with two existing domestic/livestock wells and one more authorized, plus 5,000-gallon water storage tanks and a 500-gallon tank.
Reliable power is provided by solar systems and a generator for off-grid efficiency.
Beyond its practical amenities, Alma Mesa Ranch offers breathtaking natural beauty enhancing the experience of ranch ownership as well as world-class hunting.
A Special History
If you follow the Outlaw Trail that goes west and north from Silver City, New Mexico, youll pass through Alma Mesa. But the history of this area starts well before members of the Wild Bunch worked here. Pre-Colombian history is evident in the pit houses in the area that was home to the Mogollon Indians for centuries. Fast forward, this part of Arizona and New Mexico was settled after the Civil War, when English and Scottish investors established large cattle ranches on the open range. Those investors included Harold Wilson and Montague Stevens (later author of the western classic Meet Mr. Grizzly). Their names are the basis for the WS in the WS Ranch. The WS spread was vast, from eastern Arizona (where naturalist Aldo Leopold would later serve as a forest ranger) to the foothills of the Mogollon Range. According to Captain William French, manager of the WS Ranch and author of Some Recollections of a Western Ranchman, frontier hardly described the area. The Apache, consigned to the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona, periodically made forays through the area en route to the Mogollons, which were the birthplace of Geronimo. Tombstones in area cemeteries describe tragic deaths from ambushes, shootouts and illness. WS ranch hands during this time included Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid of the Wild Bunch. Their stay on the ranch apparently ended when tipped off by a local that Pinkerton agents were swarming Alma after bank notes began surfacing there that had allegedly been stolen in a train robbery in Montana.
After the WS Ranch moved its cattle operation to northeastern New Mexico, others arrived. One arrival was Hugh McKeen, whose descendants remain prominent citizens in the San Francisco (formerly Keller) Valley. Mr. McKeen and his children carved out another vast ranch in much the same area as the WS Ranch. When the Forest Service set up grazing allotments on public lands, one such allotment was the Alma Mesa Allotment, which straddles the Arizona and New Mexico state line and is the sole entry to a large swath of Arizona east of the Blue River. Whats evident on the allotment is the thoughtful work that the McKeens put into working with the landscape to enhance the country and its productive capacity for livestock, which also benefitted the abundant wildlife. Fences were built with the landscape as a guide. Stock tanks were placed to catch water from simply gushing down canyons. Pipeline systems were installed in areas with grass but a long walk to water.
As the decades passed, many of the improvements on Alma Mesa went into disrepair.That has changed. Fences have been re-built and new fences have been built. The west side, for example, now has a perimeter fence. New Mexico South and Beaver Trap have a new perimeter fence. Maple Charlie Moore Pasture has been fenced into two parts to allow better livestock managementsouth of the primitive boundary (still Maple Charlie Moore Pasture) and north of that primitive boundary (Six Shooter Pasture). There is a water lot where Alma Mesa Pasture, Six Shooter and West Trap meet. There are now new traps for breeding at Antelope and Cradle Basin.
Water projects have been a primary focus for development, which benefit livestock as well as wildlife.There are now pipelines from Beaver Canyon to Charlie Moore Mesa, to Sunflower Mesa, to the southeast corner of Maple Charlie Moore Pasture and up Beaver Canyon half-way to Buzzard Tank. There are now pipelines from Keller Canyon to Cradle Mesa Trap and Cradle Mesa. There is an extensive, largely buried water network that begins at Stateline Camp and runs to West Trap, New Mexico South Pasture, New Mexico North Pasture, South Stateline Trap, North Stateline Trap and to Alma Mesa. Stock tanks have been cleaned and re-built. Cattle, bear, elk, deer, turkey, lion. You and the hunters who come to the area will now see them or their tracks outside of riparian areas as a result of this work.
Previously, there was no living or working facility on the private land associated with Alma Mesa. That has also changed. There is now a three-bedroom home to live in. There are new state-of-the-art facilities for working cattle at Keller Canyon Headquarters. Included is a new, two-bay shop with a bunkhouse, a paneled ranch office, a set of covered processing facilities with a hydraulic squeeze chute and palpation cage, a Temple-Grandin inspired processing tub and working pens, a certified set of scales, a hay barn, a saddle shed and a well house. There are two solar systems, each with maintenance-free batteries, a back-up propane generator and over 10,000 gallons of water storage from two wells.
Alma Mesa. History. A passion for the country, cattle and wildlife.
