Property Features
40 Acres
Natural Forage and Meadows
Cowichie Creek Wildlife Corridor: Serves as a reliable, year-round water feature lined with dense riparian brush that acts as a natural game funnel and travel bottleneck. Native Woody Browse: Essential shrub species like bitterbrush, buckbrush, and elderberry provide vital, high-protein fall and winter feed for mule deer and elk as mountain grasses dry out. Grazing Pocket & Cover Mix: Open native bunchgrasses and forbs mixed into brushy bedding cover give wildlife an ideal feeding-to-bedding setup. Agricultural Transition Zone: The property serves as a preferred movement corridor between high-country timber cover and the agricultural fruit orchards down in the valley.
Springs and Creeks
Featuring a live, year-round branch of Cowiche Creek cutting through the property, this permanent water source serves as an essential magnet for local wildlife. Surrounded by thick riparian brush and native cover, the creek provides a vital drinking stop and natural travel corridor for mule deer, elk, and wild game year-round.
Hills, Woods, Shelter Belt, Grasslands, Brush, and Draws
The property’s varied terrain—ranging from rolling hills to natural draws—creates exceptional multi-layered shelter for local game. Deep draws chocked with dense brush provide cool thermal cover and hidden travel corridors, while pockets of dense woods offer high-security bedding sites. This mix of heavy cover and terrain relief keeps mule deer, elk, and wildlife feeling protected, holding game directly on the acreage rather than just passing through.

Bio
Welcome to the ridge! I’m a classically trained chef (graduated from culinary school in Seattle), a kinesiology degree holder, and a coach specializing in health, nutrition, and self-defense (eg. Jiu-Jitsu and kickboxing). I bought these 40 acres in Cowichie, WA to build a sustainable permaculture food forest and live off-grid for the rest of my years.
I’m passionate about responsible land stewardship, working with nature, and sharing this unique piece of high-desert terrain with respectful hunters, campers, and outdoorsmen. Whether you're here for peak hunting season or a quiet getaway under the stars, I’m glad to host you on the property.
