LAND/WATER

265.831 acres of ag-exempt land mostly covered with bull mesquites, prickly pear cactus, and thick native grasses. Along the ravines are large live oaks, massive elms, and many mud holes for the wildlife to cool in the heat of the day. Additionally, two ponds provide cool water when needed. This rugged ranch with its wild habitat has no doubt been home for various varmints for years. Hunters can expect to see whitetail deer, bobcats, coyotes, feral hogs, and mourning dove throughout the year.

IMPROVEMENTS/UTILITIES

Electricity runs along CR 180 which can be used to power your campsite or a water well if desired. The perimeter is low fenced, and cattle pens are located in the middle of the property. There are many 12 ft. wide cut roads along most of the perimeter fence and a few on the interior providing ATV access to the seasonal drainages for hunting purposes. Additionally, a 50 ft. wide pipeline easement across the property provides great travel access.

MINERALS

No mineral rights are included.

TAXES

The property currently has an agricultural tax valuation but could easily convert to a wildlife management valuation to further benefit the hunting land. Yearly taxes are approximately $500.
