Notes from the landowner

Located on the South Platte River, south of Greeley, this property offers pristine waterfowl hunting. These blinds are formed with t-posts, hog paneling and are brushed in using various debris and vegetation. Each blind can comfortably fit 6 people, please bring your own chairs. The property to the west of Gander River has not been hunted in the past, and the stretch of river to the east is owned by the town of Evans…. Meaning Gander River is strategically situated in an area where there is minimal hunting activity. Hunters, make sure to bring all licenses and tags required. Also, all hunters must abide by Colorado state rules and laws. Limits and regulations still apply. SPEEDING OVER 15mph ON PRIVATE ROADS WILL RESULT IN FINES.

Game and habitat information

This Property is located on the very secluded section of the South Platte River. Years past has proven this property to be very productive. The South Platte in this region breaks up into many sand bars, bends, and pocket water. All of which provides excellent forage opportunity and habitat for waterfowl on this property. Pivot and ag fields located just a couple hundred yards to the south will provide birds to utilize the ag and the river to its fullest extent. This area sees minimal hunting pressure and a surplus of waterfowl. The location and habitat this property provides makes this an excellent location for any waterfowl hunter.

Great spot on the river. Blind was in good shape and easy to find with the app.

Great property and blind. Several hundred geese roosting on the river at the property and just upstream. Thanks for the great season!

Great, easy, short access to a pretty nice blind. Good spot to take my dad who can’t hike as far. Unfortunately we were there when the river was frozen so we couldn’t decoy birds and only got some passing shots. I would book it again though at a time where the weather is more favorable for duck hunting! Still killed 3 birds which made a good memory.

The easy access is great, and it seems like a good spot. There were 6-8 ducks on the property west of the blind but it was otherwise very, very slow. I imagine it was ikely the fault of the weather and not the location.

Easy access with great communication. Duck hunting was slow but it’s not due to a poor location. The blind was in a great spot on the river and we’d hunt again. We appreciate them opening up their property

Ease access. Short walk to haul gear. There was a decent amount of spent shells around the blind on arrival. Cleaned up and added brush to the blind.

Nice blind easy access onto the property and hauling in gear to the blind. Was my first DIY duck hunt and couldn't have picked a better spot. Saw a good amount of birds with being still early in migration. My father was able to shoot his first duck a green at that. And I was able to put down a couple green wings.
