The ranch encompasses 400 deeded acres of native grass pasture, primarily blue grama, sideoats grama, and multiple bluestem varieties. The turf is in good to excellent condition and is divided into 16 pastures designed for high-intensity rotational grazing. Perimeter fencing is new condition and consists of welded pipe corners, new steel posts and net wire, while interior division fences are 12.5-gauge, three-wire electric, supported by both electric and solar chargers.

Water is a standout feature, with a redundant and reliable system including three wells (two electric, one solar) feeding into a 5,000-gallon storage tank that distributes water to pastures and drinkers, via a pressure system. There are 10 tire drinkers on a float system, strategically placed so livestock travel no more than 1/4 mile for water. A playa lake adds additional character and utility to the mostly flat terrain at an elevation of approximately 4,465 feet.

Improvements include a 14' x 125' shed row with Ritchie automatic drinkers, a 40' x 40' metal shop, a 40' x 25' insulated shop, a 10' x 20' carport, additional shed row, and another carport. The existing corral system-primarily panels-will not convey, providing buyers the flexibility to design a corral layout that best fits their operation. An insulated, portable building with cement covered porch and a side entrance can be used as a tack room, medicine room or additional storage. The building has electricity and a water hydrant to it. Also has extra storage space in the attic. Additionally there are also large evergreen trees providing a wind break on all sides of the headquarters.
