HOW is located about 10 miles north of Hayden, CO on the Howe Ranch property. It is situated in a clearing to the north of a small creek. The soil is hard packed and clay-rich with shrink-swell cracks. The surrounding vegetation is primarily sage brush and small grasses. The area is not grazed but is a corridor through which elk regularly migrate.
