Ten miles of roads have been improved recently giving access to most of the ranch on both sides of the creek. There is a working rock quarry or caliche pit which has good road base available on the ranch for additional roads and ongoing maintenance. The ranch is available for sale in its entirety at $550/acres or $6,600,000. Contact: Malcolm Calaway, Broker 432-294-0091
