About this home
Owner financing available-bring your vision for your own 1,616-acre Utah backcountry retreat!" For more than a century, one family has held onto this stretch of Ford Ridge outside Helper, 1,616 acres of real Utah backcountry, spread across multiple parcels and bordered on nearly every side by BLM land, so where your acreage ends is really just where the exploring begins. This isn't flat, fenced-in pastureland, it's rugged high country built for elk and deer, UTVs and mountain bikes, hunters and hikers who want more than a groomed trail. Existing water rights, a power line easement, and an active, income-producing cell tower lease add real utility and cash flow to land that's already building equity. Whether you're after a legacy hunting camp or a multi-generational retreat, this is a working piece of Carbon County history, cliffs, canyons, and all.
