    Description

    Showings by appointment only.

    This exceptional 187-acre property lies in the heart of British Columbia’s famed Pink Mountain region—an area known across the province as the elk hunting capital of BC. Nestled in a secluded valley surrounded by endless Crown land, the property offers over a mile and a half of Upper Halfway River frontage and Elbow Creek running along the eastern edge, providing unmatched access to wildlife-rich habitat. The historic RCMP Trail winds through the land, once used by trappers and travelers crossing the rugged Rocky Mountain foothills.

    The property includes pastures, a hay yard, and a history of raising Highland cattle, but its true allure lies in its wilderness setting—where elk, moose, deer, and bear roam freely. The custom-built octagonal log home, hand-hewn from massive pine trees around a 20 ft central log, blends rustic craftsmanship with modern comfort. Featuring hardwood floors, a granite kitchen, sun porch, and Blaze King fireplace, it’s the perfect basecamp after a long day in the backcountry.

    Completely self-sufficient, the home runs on a 4 kW solar system with a Kubota backup generator and wood-fired radiant heating. With its open spaces and infrastructure this property offers everything needed for a remote, off-grid lifestyle—where the call of bugling bulls and untouched wilderness define your backyard.

    Area Data

    Located in northeastern British Columbia, approximately 180 km northwest of Fort St. John along the Alaska Highway, Pink Mountain sits at the northern edge of the Rocky Mountain Foothills. The region is renowned for its abundant wildlife and exceptional hunting opportunities—particularly for elk, moose, deer, and black bear. Elevations range from 3,000 to over 5,000 feet, with rolling foothills, river valleys, and expansive Crown land offering thousands of acres of accessible backcountry.

    The area is part of the Peace River Regional District and supports a mix of ranching, trapping, and oil and gas activity. The Pink Mountain area is also known for its early snowpack, alpine meadows, and the Halfway River drainage, which provides excellent fishing for bull trout and grayling. Outdoor recreation dominates the local lifestyle, with access to the historic RCMP Trail, miles of off-road and snowmobile routes, and some of the best big game hunting terrain in British Columbia.

    Recreation

    The Pink Mountain area is a paradise for outdoor and wildlife enthusiasts. This region is world-renowned for its incredible abundance of native wildlife, making it one of British Columbia’s most sought-after hunting destinations. Moose, elk, deer, bison, black bear, grizzly bear, and even wolf are regular visitors right on the property—offering exceptional hunting opportunities literally out your back door. In recent years, stone sheep rams have also been sighted in the area, underscoring its rich biodiversity.

    Beyond hunting, the nearby river—just a short walk from the home—is teeming with bull trout, rainbow trout, and grayling, providing excellent fishing in a pristine wilderness setting. The surrounding foothills and valleys offer endless opportunities for quadding, hiking, canoeing, and kayaking, with miles of trails and waterways to explore. Whether you’re a hunter, angler, or simply a nature lover, Pink Mountain delivers an unmatched wilderness experience right at your doorstep.

    History

    Pink Mountain was named for the rosy hue that often reflects off the rocky slopes at sunrise and sunset. The area became known in the early 1900s as trappers, prospectors, and early settlers began moving north through the Peace River region. During the 1930s and 1940s, the Alaska Highway construction brought an influx of workers and established the region as a key waypoint on the route between Fort St. John and Fort Nelson.

    Over time, Pink Mountain developed a reputation as one of northern British Columbia’s premier hunting and outfitting destinations, attracting sportsmen from across Canada and the United States. Ranching and later oil and gas exploration added to the local economy, but the area has retained its remote, frontier character—defined by wide-open country, abundant wildlife, and a deep connection to the land.
