This half section is filled with diversity and opportunity that you don't want to miss. Located just 3 miles north of Burton, Kansas in the heart of sand hills that lay in the Arkansas River Lowlands area. This parcel has a long history of producing successful trophy whitetail deer, upland birds and waterfowl hunts across multiple generations. When not being hunted, it has also been a strong cow-calf producer over the years. This parcel exhibits the prototypical sandy soils that were delivered and deposited to the area over millions of years by the Arkansas River. The sandy soils have created a landscape of gentle dunes that would continue to change and evolve if not for the strong vegetation that has taken root and stabilized it. As it's name suggests, there are areas on this ranch where wild blackberries are super thick and a single patch may occupy multiple acres. There are also sand plums, sumac, dense cedars and tall cottonwoods that break up the lush native grasses. A trail system has been established and winds throughout the property leading you to any of the three ponds, multiple seasonal wetlands and even the elevated hunting blinds. The property is fenced on all sides and has interior cross fencing that creates 4 different pastures. There are fenced pens and a solar well near the main gate, along with a small shed. There are also three enclosed, elevated hunting blinds on the property. The Seller also has cattle chutes and working equipment on site that is not included in the asking price, but could be negotiated for or purchased separately. While only a portion of this parcel is covered in tall timber, cottonwoods and trees suitable for hanging a tree stand, Kansas deer hunters knows that this area produces wall-hangers and that the thick, natural vegetation produces both great cover and food. The huge stand of blackberry bushes on this property create a great food source for all wildlife and are especially important for whitetail deer, as they eat both the fruit and the browse. In some areas of this parcel, the cover is so thick that the travel corridors are extremely easy to identify as the deer weave through the dense patches leaving unmistakable wear marks. The landscape also features 3 ponds, two of which have been expanded over the years. There are also numerous wet weather wetlands that fill after rains and even when they are dry, they are easily identifiable by the cattails and other semi-aquatic vegetation that occupy them. The ponds and these wetlands combine to create some awesome waterfowl hunting opportunities. This parcel resides between the Arkansas River and the Little Arkansas River and in the bullseye of the famed Central Flyway. Upland bird hunters who spend any time at all on the property will literally have their head spinning trying to determine where that most recent bobwhite quail whistle came from. Bobwhites have had a strong few years in the area and this parcel helps prove that point. There are many multiple coveys on this place! Pheasants can also be flushed from the thick cover. There is currently a cattle tenant in place on a year to year agreement, which stipulates that livestock must be removed no later than October in order to take full advantage of the hunting season. In the past, the Seller has run as many as 30 pairs on the property per season. All water rights owned by the Seller, if any, shall transfer to the Buyer at closing. The Seller is not believed to own the mineral rights and they shall not transfer as a part of this sale.
