Elevation of the ranch range from around 2050 ft. in the creek bottom land to around 2335 ft. on the higher hills. Rough Creek, Cottonwood Creek and Turkey Creek traverse through the ranch for several miles. Range sites vary throughout the ranch. Deep heartland, loamy bottomland, mixed land, sandy loam and shallow Redland are the predominant range sites. Annual dry weight grass production on the land in good condition in normal rainfall years can range from 1700 to 3600 pounds per acre. Native grasses found in these range sites are buffalo, side oat grama, vine mesquite, blue & black grama, little bluestem, three awn, Texas winter grass, hairy grama, cane and silver bluestem, Arizona cotton top, plains bristle and hooded windmill. The current owner has completed vast amounts of grass and brush conservation work (all conducive to quail production) on the ranch. Primary tree cover is mesquite and cedar with some cottonwoods along creeks, and areas of beautiful live oak.

Water: It is reported that there are approximately 20 plus ponds to small lakes on the ranch, some stocked with fish. Some of the lakes are quite impressive. Rough creek, a seasonal creek, has several areas that are reported to hold water year long. There are two water wells on the ranch, one with a pump that services the headquarters and one, with a windmill on the south portion of the ranch. The water from these wells is high in minerals and is used mainly for bathing, cleaning and livestock. Drinking water is brought in and stored in a large cistern.

Improvements:

Headquarters for the ranch consist of an older but nice Austin stone ranch style home. The home is very spacious with 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, kitchen, dining and living area. There is also an attached 2 car garage. A large cinder block and steel barn is near the home. The barn has enclosed storage, open storage and shelter space for livestock. This is a very ample barn for a ranch of this size. There are attached livestock corrals at the barn. The cowboy at heart can enjoy the roping arena adjacent to the headquarters compound. Two sets of corrals, one with scales is located on the north portion of the ranch, and there is one set of corrals on the south portion of the ranch.

Recreation: Both white tail and mule deer as well as turkey, quail, dove and possibly wild hog find habitat on the ranch. The ranch has a large amount of improved quail habitat. One may also drop a hook in one of the many ponds, lakes and rough creek have fish for dinner.
