History

Ferry County, rich in pioneer and mining heritage, was established in the late 1800s and named after Washington’s first governor, Elisha P. Ferry.

Over time, the area transitioned into a haven for ranching, logging, and recreation. This property embodies that legacy—land once worked for its natural resources is now carefully managed for hay production, livestock, and conservation. Its enduring character and craftsmanship reflect the pioneering spirit that built Ferry County.
