Mile Guest Ranch
Whether you're
a skilled hunter or a novice, be assured your hunt will be as positive
an experience as we can possibly make it. We want you to be successful,
have some fun, and build some wonderful lifelong memories.

Hunts are 5
days with your arrival the day before the hunt and departure the
day after. Hunting packages include lodging, meals, field care of
your trophy. Lodging is at the ranch in one of several charming
cabins that are equipped with modern bathrooms and warm clean beds,
or at our 3000-square-foot lodge. All meals are prepared in
home-style fashion with "generous portions." Early arrivals
must be previously arranged and an additional charge will be assessed
for each hunter.
Your meat can
be processed at your own expense; we will be glad to transport your
game to one of several local meat lockers. Nine Mile Guest Ranch
is not responsible for shipping guns, gear, meat or antlers. Due
to time restrictions within our operation, all hunters must make
their own arrangements with Wild Game Transport, UPS, FedEx or the US Post Office before
leaving.

BLM statement:
All or part of this operation is conducted on Public Lands under
special permit from the US Bureau of Land Management. Nine Mile
Guest Ranch leases over 90,000 acres of private land in
Colorado for hunting. We have obtained a BLM permit because some
of our leases neighbor BLM lands and in some instances we may have
to go onto this land to recover an animal. No hunting will be conducted
exclusively on BLM lands. |
