for offgrid development.
The grid is 12 miles away but solar energy and water are
free and abundant. Build a comfortable home that catches both for house and
gardens. 12-16 inches of water fall each year as rain,
snow and hail. And we boast the highest solar exposure
of the continental USA. Photo-voltaic systems can
provide up to 80% of your annual electricity needs.
Protect
We are in the Eastern-most part of the Game and Fish
Department's Unit 10. A vast array of wildlife seeks
cover and forage in Cataract Creek's sheltered
watershed. In addition we have numerous upland
cattle-tanks that provide year-round water to antelope
and elk, javelinas and eagles. Diverse bird species call
Four Hills home. Peregrine falcons, turkey vultures and
cliff swallows build nests on the canyon's high walls.
Learn
The 72 acres range from
short-grass prairie and conifer forests on the heights at
5900', to the sandy bottom of Cataract Creek at 5720'. The
Preserve encloses a raging seasonal creek, too. To help
you learn about the area, we provide an accurate climate
summary, and lists of local plants, vendors and
contractors.
