Soils/Topography/Forage: The tallgrass prairie forages are evident in the upland soils of the cross timbers. The approximately 65 acres of bottom ground are primarily composed of productive Verdigris and Mason silt loams suitable for improved forage production or food plot locations. These bottom land areas are dominated by mature timber stands featuring a diverse mix of red oak, bur oak, hickory, pecan, and other native hardwood species. These species collectively contribute to an abundant supply of both hard and soft mast, as well as a rich understory of native browse, all of which are critical components of high-quality white-tailed deer habitat.

The upland prairie forages are represented by the big four grasses, including big bluestem, Indiangrass, switchgrass and little as well as other native grasses, forbs and legumes. These Niotaze- Darnell complex and Stephenville- Darnell soils sustain the upland forages along with post oak, blackjack oak and hickory trees. These plants, and many others, are important ingredients of the diverse ecological balance of the tallgrass prairie and cross timbers ecoregions.
