Topography:

The property offers approximately 90 feet of total elevation relief, with the highest point reaching 2,290 feet along the southern boundary. From there, the land gradually slopes toward the northern and eastern portions of the ranch, descending to approximately 2,200 feet in the bottom country below the ridge. The ridgeline itself provides approximately 50 feet of elevation change, creating scenic views and adding diversity to the landscape.

Rainfall and Elevation:

According to the Texas State Historical Association, Scurry County averages 22.7” of rainfall annually.

Cover:

The cover changes across the property. Open cultivation is found along the southern portion of the ranch, while a thick block of mature mesquite transitions into lighter mesquite cover in the bottom country to the north, just off the ridge.
