Stunning views include Madera Mountain, as well as scenic beauty within the ranch he range improvements of the past 15 years are nothing short of extraordinary. here have been more than 6,000 acres of mechanical brush removal, and 10,000 acres of spike treatment throughout the ranch, creating open valleys and cleared grasslands surrounded by rolling hills of native trees and vegetation. New 3-inch poly pipe waterlines and valves distribute water over the entire ranch to elevated storage and to more than 100 water troughs designed for wildlife and livestock use. he road system is extensive, with huge caliche main arteries and smaller maintained roads providing access to the entire ranch. Fencing is mostly new or recently-improved across the ranch. A new set of pipe pens with scales make working and processing cattle a breeze.
