His experience with water rights, grazing capacity, agricultural productivity, and land management helps clients evaluate complex properties and make well-informed decisions.

Evan and his wife, Cassie, live in the Burnt River Valley of eastern Oregon with their two young sons, Lane and Brooks. Together, they raise commercial cattle and a small herd of registered Angus cattle. Evan’s agricultural background and straightforward, solutions-oriented approach allow him to work effectively with multigenerational landowners, agricultural operators, investors, and buyers seeking a connection to the rural West.
Little Beech Creek South is a 1,924± acre recreational and legacy property in Grant County, Oregon, just minutes from the town of John Day. More than half a mile of John Day River frontage and several springs traverse the ranch. From the river, the topography rises through hillsides of juniper and pine, cresting a ridge, with Little Beech Creek on its far side. This range of terrain creates excellent habitat for elk and mule deer, with cover, feed, and water all on the property. Antelope, wild turkey, and upland birds are also common. The ranch is in Oregon's Northside Unit, known for elk and mule deer hunting, and may qualify for up to three landowner preference tags each for deer and elk.
