Hopeful Rancher
New member
Hello everyone. Twelve years of driving a semi had provided me and my family a nice livelyhood. We have a great home, a boat that we love, family close by, and all the things that your average middle class American is suspose to.
We are ready to give most of this up for a little more substance in our lives. We don't expect nor want to get rich, just to have a life we can be happy LIVING!
I have a million questions, and most of the posts I have been reading here have so far been very helpful. I am looking for a mentor, someone who wouldn't mind helping a hopeful in acheaving his dream.
We are looking at about 200 acres in Western New Mexico, just East of Springerville, Arizona for anyone whom might know the area. There is about 1000-1500 acres of BLM land backing up to this plot. The elevation is around 4-5000 feet with snow flurries during the winter, but never any hardpack. The area is full of cattle ranches, so I know that someone out there is doing it. I just need to figure out how to get started.
Again, anyone who knows this area, or might have a few words of wisdom for me, it will be greatly appreciated!
