The ranch foreman lives on his own piece of ground right off of the county road.   The ranch has great access from Fielder Draw road, which is a well-maintained county road.  The road system across the entire ranch is good.  You can access just about any part of the ranch in a pickup. Fielder Draw road runs through the middle of the ranch and out the west side.

The north pasture and traps or the south pasture could be purchased separately if so desired.  Please call for additional maps and pricing for smaller parcel options.   The topography of this ranch is diverse, attracting many species of wildlife.
