Topography, Rangeland & Habitat
The topography of the ranch is relatively flat on the northwest side and gently sloping with a change in elevation from 85’ to 45’ above sea level, sloping towards Sandy Hollow Creek that cuts through the east side of the property. Most of the property appears to sit above the flood plain, however, the creek system is lower and is part of the flood plain area of the Nueces River. There is also a pond in the far western corner of the property and another low area or creek in the far northwest corner. The soils are clay to sandy loam, identified as Victoria clay soil, along with Willacy, Papalote, Clareville, Hildago, and Orelia sandy loam, plus Sinton and Clareville clay loam. From near the middle of the property to the northwest corner it appears to consist of improved grass pastureland covering approximately one third of the whole property. The remainder is mostly big trees and brush with some nice, maintained shredded areas scattered around the east side.
