Located in GMU 12, renowned for its massive bull elk, mule deer, and Pronghorn population, wildlife on the ranch has been expertly managed, under-hunted, and is famous for the size, quality, and genetics of its habitable animals. For a west, centrally located New Mexico ranch, Atarque Ranch: Track 2 is topographically diverse, ranging from landmark-styled plateaus one can see from miles away to deep volcanic layered canyons, iconically shaped massive rock outcroppings, numerous arroyos, to open grassland flats intermixed with cedars and junipers, as is typical of the landscape in the area. There are abundant remnants of ancient Native American culture and early homesteaders throughout the property, reminding one of the longevity of the land itself. The distinct landscape, views, wildlife habitat, privacy, and landlocked nature of the ranch make it one of the best large ranches in the region. This property contains no lodging.
