Property Summary

Own a piece of the Painted Desert and transport yourself into a painting!

This once-in-a-lifetime property is an adventurer's dream. It consists of 100% rocky badlands and is part of the enchanted Painted Desert of Northern Arizona. The eastern border of the property touches the Petrified Forest National Park, and Arizona State Land borders the northern boundary. You can't get more wild, untamed land than this! Not only do you have an expansive 80 acres of undulating badlands to explore for fossils and artifacts, but you also have *thousands* of acres at your fingertips since it touches public land on 2 sides.

The unobstructed views over the Painted Desert from the ridge on the northwestern corner of the property are breathtaking and stretch for miles over the National Park. Unique rock formations of colorful clay and sandstone layers make up the 80 acres under your feet. The summer monsoon rains form channels in the stone and allow a wetland environment to spring to life. This property's remote location on the edge of a National Park means that the night sky is one of the darkest in the country and a perfect spot for an observatory on the ridge, or just a place to sit and contemplate the cosmos. Park your Toy Hauler at the top of the ridge, unload your ATVs and dirt bikes and have a ride like you've never had before. This property is an endless playground!

Build your off-grid cabin or yurt on the edge of the cliff to soak in the beautiful sunrises (then rent it out on AirBnB when you're not in town for some recurring income.)

Bring your sense of adventure and your four-wheel drive because the road ends 1,200 feet from the property. It has insurable legal access and ingress from the nearby Huggins Road. Please see the interactive map at the bottom of the page; the legal easement to the property is highlighted with a blue dotted line. Also at the bottom of the page are the turn-by-turn directions to the property from Interstate 40. These directions are highlighted in the interactive map as a yellow solid line.

Rachel made the entire land purchase a "piece of cake". She walked me through everything and was right on top of things. As soon as I sent the money, the deed was notarized and recorded only a couple of days later. I just visited my new property in Wolf Creek Montana today and I am very pleased with the purchase. Thank you again 😊

The Ashbrook Land Company is a superb company. Their communication skills and desire to help you obtain the land of your dreams is top notch. Probably some of the best service I’ve had when buying a piece of land. I would recommend them to anyone.

I just purchased a piece of land from Ashbrook Land Co., LLC, and I am very happy with the professional yet personal approach that Bob and Rachel Ashbrook gave to me.The whole process was easy and painless, and only took a couple of days. Everything was done online, but I felt completely secure giving out my personal information, because I think the Ashbrooks are truly honest people to deal with.
