While the primary target has been gold, other ore deposits have been mined as well. Okanogan is the county seat of Okanogan County in north-central Washington in the productive orchard lands of the Okanogan River Valley. This town site, on the west bank of the Okanogan River, was first settled in 1888 and was called Alma. In 1905, the town's name was changed to Pogue, in honor of a prominent citizen. In 1907 the town voted overwhelmingly to change the name to Okanogan, in order to better reflect its place on the Okanogan River and its proximity to the fledgling Okanogan Irrigation Project. Later in 1907, the town voted nearly unanimously to incorporate. The new town boomed along with the region's apple orchards and timber industry. In 1914, the Great Northern railroad arrived and Okanogan succeeded in a spirited campaign to wrest the county seat from Conconully. By 1930, Okanogan was overtaken in population by Omak, its neighbor five miles to the northeast. As of 2010, Okanogan's population was estimated at 2,500, a little more than half the size of Omak. Yet Okanogan remains the governmental hub of Okanogan County, and the original 1915 county courthouse still presides over the city. Early Days The site of Okanogan was used for thousands of years as a camping ground and fishing area by the Southern Okanogan Tribe, also known as the Sinkaietk or Uknaqinx, as well as by several other tribes of the mid-Columbia. Steelhead and salmon runs were plentiful on the Okanogan River. The Okanogan River was also well known to fur traders and other early non-Indian explorers in the early 1800s. 1n 1833 the famed botanist David Douglas (1799-1834) camped at the mouth of a creek that was probably Salmon Creek, where the town is today. Farms, Orchards, and a Town However, by around 1900, the mining fever was cooling off and settlers began turning their eye to another kind of gold agricultural bottomlands. People began to realize that, with the addition of irrigation water, the Okanogan Valley could be rich orchard land and farmland. In 1905, the Okanogan Irrigation Project was approved by the U.S. Department of the Interior, making it the first U.S. Reclamation Service project in the state. Contracts were let in 1906. Pioneer entrepreneurs began platting future town sites to serve what they envisioned as a bustling agricultural valley The property is located 15 Minuets West of the town of Tonasket and 20 minuets West of the town of Republic Washington . The property is situated at the very beginning of the historic Aeneas valley.

Rio Vista Ranch. State of the art Equestrian facility or Potential Okanogan Winery location in Red Wine Country. Wineries from other regions use grapes from this area to produce award-winning, sun-ripened red wines. Property was originally used for raising Arabian horses . The property lies in the same valley between two distinct AVA'S in Canada and Chelan County, Complete irrigation system installed. The ranch is level in terrain with 1 full and 1 half pivot and wheel lines for the remainder of the irrigated ground. The climate and elevation make the property a perfect vineyard property if not being used for equestrian or other agricultural purposes. For those who like to talk dirt.... The Okanagan Valley was once a huge glacier. The soils are mostly sandy with white clay-silt on top of gravelly glacial sands with limestone, granite and other gravels of ancient volcanic origin. What does that actually mean? Well, if you were to sum them up, wines produced on these soils generally have high aromatic intensity, minerality, and more subtle tannins. The region's location just under the 50th parallel means it has a short growing season. Grapes rapidly develop sweetness during the day but it's cold at night. This is a classic example of diurnal shift and is one of the reasons why Okanagan wines have mouth-zapping acidity. Of course, ripeness levels can still get out of hand; we noticed volatile acidity in some winery programs. As far as winemaking and viticulture goes, the Okanagan is still being figured out. Fortunately, Canada has a history of welcoming winemakers from all over, including places like New Zealand, South Africa, Australia, and France. The outside talent brings perspective and wine quality improves with each vintage. For those moving towards organic and biodynamic wines, this area has good potential. The high winds, lack of phylloxera, and extreme seasons deter a lot of pests. One clever technique commonly employed in Okanagan wine country is picking grapes at multiple points throughout harvest. Then, they're blended together to create a single, more balanced wine. Wines made with this method display both ripe flavors and high natural acidity. This is top of the line Equestrian center with everything in almost new condition . Don't miss one of the largest steel framed free span riding arenas in the area. Free span riding arena 280x 150 Equestrian barn with 1 bed apartment 175x90 Work shop and storage barn 100x40 Okanogan Valley offers an impressive range of outdoor adventure and recreational activities, including Mountain Biking & Cycling; Boating, Sailing & Cruising; Camping & RVing; Canoeing & Kayaking; Hiking & Backpacking; River Rafting & Whitewater Kayaking; Skiing & Snowboarding; Surfing & Windsurfing; and Snowshoeing & cross-country ski touring.

Abundant steelhead and salmon runs in the Okanogan River sustained indigenous communities for generations. During the early 1800s, the Okanogan River attracted fur traders and explorers, who recognized its importance in regional trade and exploration. By the turn of the 20th century, as the mining boom subsided, settlers recognized the agricultural potential of the valley's bottomlands. With the promise of irrigation, the Okanogan Valley transformed into prime orchard and farmland. In 1905, the Okanogan Irrigation Project, the state's inaugural U.S. Reclamation Service endeavor, was approved by the U.S. Department of the Interior. Contracts followed in 1906, marking a pivotal moment in the region's agricultural history.
