Tract 2 totals 153 +/- acres consisting of grazing pasture and thick hardwood timber. This is a great prospect for both the beef producer and those looking for a hunting property. The pasture is comprised mostly of robust Native varieties highlighted by Big Bluestem, Switch grass and Indian Grass that continue to be productive during the hot, dry summer months. The fences are constructed of barbed wire, mostly 4 and 5 strand that are rated adequate to good, depending on the section. Water is provided by ponds in the northern and southern halves as well as the wet-weather creeks.
There are heavily timbered portions in the fingers of multiple deep draws that run through the center of the property and near the northern boundary with huge elevation changes. The bottom of these draws are very isolated and provide much desired privacy for the resident deer and turkeys and the hills surrounding them are excellent vantage points. Theres also a very thick stand of hardwoods to the west of the abandoned Old Highway 75.
The location, just a few miles north of Buffalo, Kansas is excellent with pavement frontage provided by Old Highway 75 which is no longer in use but provides excellent access. Tract 2 is situated in the ultra-productive Kansas Deer Management Unit 11 that continues to produce quality Whitetails year in and year out.
