Land For Sale/Weekend

These weeks keep flying by. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I plan on riding my new bike as far as I can.

Anyone want to buy 80 flat ares of the most beautiful high dessert land you've ever seen?

Here it is below. Only 1 hour north north of Gerlach, Nevada, home of the Burning Man festival, held each year in August. The property is situated at the north east tip of Lassen County  in lovely Surprise Valley.

It has a 3500 sq. foot steel barn with a concrete foundation. The property is fenced, but need repair mainly on the north side. There is a large pond, 75 feet in diameter, 9 feet deep, stocked with fish, and an artisan well, 160 foot deep. The area is abundant with natural hot springs, hunting, and fishing and wildlife. It is also frequented by artists, rock hounds, equestrians, hikers, and photographers alike.  The best star gazing you ever seen. There is no street light pollution here. Redding is 150 miles to the west and Reno is 120 south.  

This property is off the grid, but can easily be tapped for solar and wind power. Surprise Valley has 300 days of sunshine a year on average, and the wind can blow like crazy. You could be completely self sufficient if you choose to. The closest gasoline is 30 miles away to the north in Cedarville, but you can get fuel and natural gas delivered if you have on sight storage. 

To the west is the Warner Mountain Range, and to the east is the Hayes Mountain range, and to the north Fandango Pass. Across the Hayes Mountains to the east is the old Oregon trail. Wild horses roam this area on BLM land. If you are looking for solitude this place has it in spades. 

There are four towns in Surprise Valley. To the north is Ft. Bidwell, Lake City,  Cedarville, the largest, in the middle, and Eagleville to the south. There are three lakes in Surprise Valley; upper, middle and lower. These fill up with water during the winter months, and are dry in summertime.   

This land is perfect for cattle, or cultivating hops, organic hay, sugar beets, potatoes, and certain varietals of grapes, such as Merlot, grow well in high altitudes 

Why am I selling it. I need the money what else.

Also, it is long enough in length, one half mile, to put a runway for an airplane and the barn makes for perfect storage.

See the photos below.

That's it today. 

Life is what happens in between meals.

Peace,

Make Food/Not War
