Set at the dramatic junction of Lone Cabin Creek and Simon's Creek, this rare 40-acre holding is steeped in British Columbia ranching and gold-prospecting history. Simon's Creek transects the property and is spring-fed from surrounding mountains, providing a reliable cold-water source that has shaped the land for generations. Access has traditionally been gained on horseback from the south via the Schraeder Lake Recreation Site, a two- to three-hour ride through rugged terrain and old-growth forest that preserves the property's seclusion. Historically part of the legendary Empire Ranch, the land was later owned by prospector Simon Phillipine, who worked Simon's Creek and packed gold to Lillooet. Remnants remain, including an old cabin site and tack room beneath a dramatic rock drop. The property features two flatter benches along the creek, is bordered by Crown land on three sides, lies within the Churn Creek Protected Area, and offers abundant wildlife and registered water licences. Must contact agent prior to accessing. Access to property at your own risk. (id:27476)
