High above the Rio Ojo Caliente valley sits the eastern boundary of Rancho Vallito. This promontory, Vallito Peak, is the highest point on the famous Black Mesa. The land then slopes West to the valley floor and finally meets the western boundary with access to over 50,000 acres of BLM open country. Crossing the property from north to south is the Rio Ojo Caliente, bounded by a lush forest of Cotton Woods and Willow. Views range from the Jemez Mountains in the SW to the Tusas Range in the north. The working portion of the ranch includes a modern architect designed two-bedroom home, a modern bridge across the river, and a stunning architect designed modern full service equestrian facility. This facility features large smooth wire turnouts shaded by mature manicured cottonwoods. All exterior areas have drinkers and a connecting gate system.
