Rugged scenery combined with trophy elk hunting make the 1,393-acre Gap Ranch a New Mexico dream ranch for sportsmen with a special appreciation for Southwestern, history and landscape.
Located a few miles east of historic Capitan, Gap Ranch lies in the heart of Billy The Kid Country, and the land around Gap Ranch remains largely unchanged since the fabled Lincoln County War of the late 1800’s, as evidenced by remnants of several homesteads from New Mexico’s pioneer days.
The Gap Ranch lies in the foothills of the Capitan Mountains at elevations around 6500 feet. Dominating the southern skyline are the rugged Capitan Mountains which rise to elevations of over 10,000 feet in the Capitan Wilderness, a refuge for some of the largest elk in the west. Fortunately for hunters, the ranch is thick with elk which are attracted to the water and meadows along Salado Creek on Gap Ranch. The fact that Gap Ranch is in an area that offers over the counter landowner elk tags, makes this ranch perfectly situated as a trophy elk ranch with a distinctive Southwestern flavor.
Salado Creek and multiple wells provide excellent water for wildlife and livestock. A grazing lease on 1,620-acres of adjacent state land, allows the landowner to capitalize on income from running cattle.
