Within the area you can hike, bike, fish, boat, ski (cross-country or downhill) heli-ski, snowmobile, (with miles and miles of ATV and 4-wheeler trails in the area, Elko was voted by Super Trax International Magazine as one of the top 10 destinations in the world), rock climb, hit the slots, visit cultural events and more.

Please feel free to visit any of the following links to learn more about Elko and the events and activities that may be taking place during your stay at the 71 Ranch.

We would like to point out that these are not scheduled events at the ranch and may require your making arrangements directly if you wish to attend any while in Nevada.

We would especially like to thank McCall Saddle Company for allowing us to use a sample of their Mountain Floral tooling as a website background and renowned silversmith Mark Dahl for making the engraved silver conchos and belt buckle above using the 71 Ranch brands.
