Welcome to the Wild Horse Ranch Landowner's Association Website. This is the official
site sponsored by the Board of Directors of the WHRLOA.
Wild Horse Ranch is a large-lot subdivision consisting of about 350 lots located in the
northeast corner of Catron County in New Mexico bordering Cibloa County to the
north. It is an area rich in history and culture and is located at an elevation of about
8,000 feet, providing us with an opportunity to enjoy four beautiful seasons. This
makes it an attractive area for people in the low desert areas to escape the summer
heat, although our landowners come from all over the country. Our landowners are
made up of permanent residents, seasonal residents, occasional residents and investors.
Subdivision lots range from about 20 acres to about 40 acres and most are covered
with Juniper and pine trees. Wildlife is abundant in the area and we have learned to
cohabitate with bears, elk, deer, bobcats, fox, and mountain lions. We also have wild
burros and antelope in the area. The variety of birds in the area is fascinating.
Hummingbirds are plentiful and eagle sightings are not uncommon.
The community has a very active volunteer fire department and a pavilion for social
gatherings. The summer months find most of our residents busy with gardening and
enjoying the outdoors. Fall is the time to harvest and prepare for the winter, which can
be brutal at times.
Wild Horse Ranch is located a little over one hour from any major shopping, so we
learn to live with what we have, to share what we have, and to stock up as much as
possible. It's a different life than city living but it is also very rewarding.

area from one of our landowners, Peggy Loyd.
