Walker Creek Lookout

Walker Creek Lookout is a 241± acre foothill block along the western flank of the Bannock Range in southeastern Idaho. Walker Creek runs year-round through the property, tracking the county road that delivers direct, four-season access from I-15. Winter road maintenance ends at the property line, providing the holding with both reliable access and meaningful privacy. The land rises from 4,840 to 5,280 feet across rolling, open ground with unobstructed views west to Haystack Mountain and the Portneuf Range.

Wildlife use is consistent. Resident mule deer and turkey hold on the property, and elk move through during seasonal transitions. The ranch sits 1.2± miles from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land and National Forest boundary, with the Walker Creek trailhead 3.5± miles up the drainage, opening direct access to thousands of acres of public land in the Bannock Range. Walker Creek Ranch falls within Idaho Big Game Unit 70, part of the Bannock Elk Zone, where controlled-hunt data has shown 78% of bucks at 4+ points and 78% of bulls at 6+ points.

Despite the seclusion, services stay close. Pocatello and Lava Hot Springs are both under 20 miles, putting groceries, schools, hospitals, and regional air service within easy reach. Pocatello Regional Airport is 34± miles north for commercial service, and Salt Lake City International is roughly two and a half hours south. Low property taxes, agricultural zoning, and 40-acre minimum division flexibility support a residence, seasonal retreat, or future family compound.
