Welcome to the ultimate Northern California wilderness retreat — a 518-acre off-grid hunting and recreational paradise located north of French Gulch and west of Lakehead. Accessed by Highway 299 → Trinity Mountain Road → East Fork Road, the route winds through the renowned Chappie-Shasta OHV Area, a vast BLM recreation network famous for its rugged mountain trails, panoramic viewpoints, and off-road adventure. From there, private 4×4 trails lead deep into this secluded mountain property — a setting that feels miles from anywhere. Three year-round creeks — Backbone Creek, Beartrap Creek, and Ringeye Creek — cross the land, supporting abundant wildlife and ideal conditions for hunting, camping, and exploring. Surrounded on all four sides by BLM land, with only a single small private parcel touching its northeast corner, this is true end-of-the-road privacy. The seller reports seven trophy bucks harvested here during the recent season — evidence of the thriving game population and premier habitat. Improvements include a hand-crafted log-home cabin built from timber on the property, a second recently completed cabin, an outdoor camping area, three large water-storage tanks, and off-grid systems powered by generators and propane. Miles of interior 4-wheel-drive and ATV trails connect creek crossings, scenic ridges, and hidden camping sites. Perfect for hunters, outdoor enthusiasts, and equestrians, this property embodies the spirit of the Northern California mountains — wild, untamed, and completely private. Whether you come for the hunt, the ride, or the solitude, this is as off-grid and remote as it gets — the private retreat of private retreats.
