In addition, recent improvements include an extensive pipe corral and holding pen area for working and feeding livestock. The property has Arkansas River frontage and bottom lands. Elk and deer, especially white tail, are seen regularly on the property. The river bottom provides good cover and water resources for game bird activity, including turkey, pheasant, and dove. Waterfowl hunting is tremendous for ducks and geese. The farm includes strong water rights including 5 shares of Oxford Ditch irrigation water and (1) irrigation well with membership rights in the Arkansas River Groundwater Users Association (AGUA).
