Originally the Razor Creek Valley was a seasonal hunting area for the Ute tribal people. Presumably, large numbers of deer, elk, and antelope congregated in the valley during those times as they do today, due to the abundant food and water resources provided by Razor Creek and the surrounding meadows.

Historical Razor Creek Ranch was homesteaded in the 1870s and has been ranched continuously since that date by various families. The land has been operated as a cattle ranch with some hay production for more than one hundred years. The approximately 254 plus-minus acres are irrigated by adjudicated water out of Snyder Ditch with 15 CFS giving you plenty of water for your herd and hay. The property is not in a homeowners association, so no rules or dues.
