Henry Windmill Ranch, With an Animal File for Every Buck
A 1,120-acre Colorado hunting preserve documenting its land, wildlife, water, and habitat decisions as an ongoing evidence record.
Field notes
The ranch describes a monitoring workflow built around individual animal records rather than occasional sightings: cameras are meant to track range, associations, annual antler changes, and when an animal disappears. Habitat interventions are framed as experiments, with treated draws compared against unchanged portions of the property. The page also supplies unusually precise geography—four sections, 28 forty-acre aliquot parts, a 7.0-mile boundary, and a 475-foot elevation change—alongside a public-facing interactive feature called the Windmill Eye.
