CR Longhorn Ranch | Harper, Oregon

INTRODUCTION The C R Longhorn Ranch is a compact, very productive, and improved pure breed ranch. The current owner raises registered Texas Longhorn cattle that can be found on www.CRLonghorns.com. The ranch has very good water rights from stored water delivered by the Vale Irrigation District by a large canal that goes through the property. The water is pumped out of the canal and into the pivots, wheel lines, and gated pipes from three pumping stations. The climate and land are conducive to crop growth, with four alfalfa cuttings that should produce 7+ tons to the acre. The ground can also produce potatoes. The elevation is 2,640± feet. The irrigation has been made more efficient by the seven pivots. Most of the fields are irregular shapes but now irrigate without the use of siphon tubes.

This property currently produces an amazing amount of forage, both for grazing and to be cut as hay.

There is also a very good, south-facing, sandy-soiled, sagebrush pasture for calving in the spring. It is close in and protected from the weather. Cattle do well in this area, with reasonably mild winters and early spring. Producers Livestock Market auction house is 20 miles away in Vale with a sale every Wednesday. This is an agriculturally based area with farming and cattle being almost the only economic activity—a great place to live both for lifestyle and production.

NEARBY ATTRACTIONS & ACTIVITES B ully C reek D am & R eservoir Bully Creek Dam and Reservoir (24± miles Northeast of Harper) are on the Bully Creek about 8 miles northwest of the Creek’s confluence with the Malheur River. Forested areas at the reservoir provide opportunities for viewing migrating birds. You may see loons, grebes, ducks, and hawks in the spring, fall, and winter. Nearby a red rock formation sometimes harbors Rock Wrens and Golden Eagles. The reservoir is 985 surface acres with 7 miles of shoreline. Paved access to the dam. Available fish species include smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, rainbow, and black crappie. The reservoir is used as a resting place by migratory waterfowl, with some ducks remaining to nest.

Sparse vegetative cover of sagebrush and grass provides habitat for small mammals and birds. (www.recreation.gov)

Located in far Eastern Oregon near the Idaho border (63± miles Southeast of Harper), the reservoir is Oregon’s longest at 52 miles. The lake is home to several species of fish, including crappie, rainbow trout, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, yellow perch, and brown bullhead, and yellow perch.

O wyhee R iver The Owyhee River presents an anglers paradise, with opportunities to cast a line around every bend. The roughly 14 miles of water below the dam that forms Lake Owyhee is a renowned blue-ribbon fishery, where brown trout get so big that fishing stories just might be true. Largemouth and smallmouth bass both swim in the reservoir, as do rainbow trout and crappie. And upstream, tributaries feature natives like red band trout. (www.wildowyhee.org)
