A wet weather pond in the west pasture is a great draw for wildlife and several other potential pond locations could be easily impounded along the many drainage areas around the farm. The heaviest cover is found along the western boundary of the property and the brush consists primarily of mesquite, hackberry, and eastern red cedar. This is an excellent location to set up a feeding station and harvest trophy whitetail or huge wild boar that calls this area of Foard County home.

A farmhouse that would be perfect for a hunters cabin is located on the east side and a set of cattle pens with barn and windmill are located in the west pasture. The perimeter fencing is good with additional cross fencing to allow for rotational grazing.
