Nine Mile can offer you a truly one-of-a kind hunting experience. Your hunt may be at the main ranch or
at one of several other leases, depending on the type of hunt you
want and the season you hunt. All properties have been chosen and
leased because of their game and habitat. The diverse terrain allows
us to accommodate many levels of hunters and their specific needs.
Guides at Nine Mile are skilled hunters themselves, and well acquainted
with the properties we hunt. Their love of the outdoors and of hunting
is evident in their enthusiasm and the personal service they provide
each hunter. Our guide-to-hunter ratio is 1:2, and safe hunting
is a priority for each and every guide.
The main ranch for Nine Mile Guest Ranch is located 9 miles north of Meeker, Colorado, on State Highway
13, just about midway between Interstate 70 (49 miles south) and
Highway 40 (40 miles north). The South Camp is also on Highway 13, about 6 miles south of Meeker. All properties are at elevations of 7,000 feet up to about 8,500 feet. The vegetation includes native grasses,
brush and berry bushes, quaking aspen trees in the higher elevations,
and an abundant variety of wildflowers. Wildlife native to the area
include, mule deer, elk, bald and golden eagles, badgers and coyotes
and many bird species. Other wildlife, such as prairie dogs, blue
heron, killdeer, and even more birds can be seen during the warmer
months.
