Description

Jackson Corner Ranch is an exceptional 770 acre property in Idaho's Lemhi Valley, just 20 minutes from Salmon. The ranch offers productive agricultural ground, exceptional water resources, conservation values, diverse wildlife habitat, and historic character. It borders thousands of acres of BLM land leading into the Salmon National Forest. The ranch features nearly one mile of Lemhi River frontage and approximately 1.5 miles of Kenny Creek, the Lemhi's coldest tributary. Senior water rights dating to 1877 support approximately 270 acres of irrigated ground, including four gravity-fed pivots and K-Line pod systems. Improvements include a historic 1870s home, 40' x 72' red barn, heated workspace, detached garage, bunkhouse, and bathhouse. Regenerative grazing practices support a stated capacity of 100 AU plus 100 seasonal calves, with potential for additional capacity. Exceptional habitat supports deer, elk, moose, waterfowl, turkey, chukar, pheasant, and quail. The Lemhi River and Kenny Creek provide vital salmon, steelhead, and trout habitat. A 2011 conservation easement protects 583 acres while allowing continued ranch operations; 187 acres remain unencumbered. Adjoining public lands offer extensive recreation, including the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway.
