Rawhide Canyon Ranch is a desirable large-scale cattle ranch located in southeast New Mexico and located in the Lincoln National Forest. The ranch is located near Queen, New Mexico which is 50+ miles southwesterly from Carlsbad, New Mexico. The ranch consists of 380 acres of deeded land and 72,300 acres of Lincoln National Forest grazing permit area plus a permitted carrying capacity of 806 Animal Unit equivalents year-round. Located on the northern flank of the Guadelupe Mountains, the ranch is characterized by grama grass and pinion trees at an elevation of 5800 feet. The year-round grass ranch provides economy of scale and a year-round grazing permit affording excellent economics.
The ranch consists of 380 acres of deeded land and 72,300 acres of Lincoln National Forest grazing permit area. The ranch has miles and miles of upgraded boundary and pasture fences. The southwest side of the ranch has a natural boundary formed by the upper rim of Upper Dog Canyon. The most recent last two owners of the ranch have upgraded and added new pipeline now exceeding over 40 miles of pipeline. The pipeline water is sourced from permitted spring in Last Chance Canyon as well as two wells (Coats and Anderson) that all provide water to 45+ tanks in nine pastures and four traps across the ranch. Additional water is stored and used from eight large earthen dirt stock tanks.
The deeded lands are the “base acreage” for the permit. The permit is renewed to the holder of the base acreage so long as the terms of the permit are not in default. The permit is a 10-year permit and renews in 2032.
A good gravel road into the headquarters is adequate for semi-trucks needed for shipping and receiving.
