The 1,311 deeded-acre Circle C Ranch is located in Northern California’s scenic Modoc County. The ranch sits just seven minutes north of Adin, and 40 minutes southwest of Alturas, CA. It is about 70 miles south of the Oregon state line and 70 miles west of the Nevada state line. With first priority adjudicated water rights from the creek, the property makes for an excellent cattle ranch. Currently, 325 ± acres are irrigated for hay production and grazing. Historically, it has been a summer grazing ranch supporting 120 cows and 400 steers from May through October. The ranch is also a great hunting and fishing property. Ash Creek meanders through the ranch for approximately four miles providing enjoyable private fishing. Ash Creek is full of native Rainbow, Redband, and Brown trout that naturally reproduce in the stream. They range in size from fingerling to 18 inches. In addition to trophy fishing, there are a multitude of recreational possibilities including horseback riding, ATVing, and hunting. The ranch is located in X-3A, a premium hunting zone. Improvements include a 1,630 SF home, an equipment shed, two barns, and a workshop. Circle C offers plenty of opportunities from running a reputable livestock operation, the outdoor recreational activities, and first-priority water rights.
