(1888PressRelease) November 19, 2008 - The Pocket Ranch at 5817± acres is one of the largest contiguous acreage properties in Oregon and the Western United States. This trophy property at nearly 10± square miles of land adjoins the southern border of The Nature Conservancy's Zumwalt Prairie Preserve that is nearly 50± square miles.

The importance of this property lies in the fact that it rises from an elevation of 2,600 feet and rises to 5,500 feet with exposure to major wind currents at the upper elevations where wind currents are the strongest. The location of the property is also the key parcel that links the surrounding properties being considered for a major regional wind generation system.

The owner of the Pocket Ranch has been contacted by 3 world wind energy development firms seeking to lease this ranch that is an important key link to the concept for a wind farm of this scale. To date numerous neighboring local property owners have signed letters of intent or formal leases in anticipation of this potential $300 million dollar major regional wind power project.

In addition to the wind farm possibilities the Pocket Ranch has potential for Hunting, Land Conservation, Cattle Ranching or Recreational Development. The Pocket Ranch is 25 minutes from the State owned Joseph Airport with a first class paved and lighted airstrip of 5000+ feet suitable for a wide variety of aircraft that services regional and worldwide visitors.
