In addition to the strong agricultural aspects of the tract, it also includes strong recreational appeal with exceptional hunting and fishing opportunities present. Crop acreage on the parcel acts to hold wildlife on the property year-round, not just a pass-through parcel. The property includes a very large timber covered bluff in its southeastern portion south of the river with mature hardwood timber and thick cedar bedding cover present. Large rubs are spread all throughout the timber with tons of deer sign throughout. The property offers both bow and rifle hunting opportunities with the Verdigris River corridor acting as a highway for bucks searching for does during the rut. Large mature roost trees are located along the river and bluff offering good turkey hunting opportunities as well.

The river offers great opportunities for fishing, waterfowl hunting, and swimming. A large portion of the property is highly secluded and not visible from the public road offering wonderful seclusion and privacy to wildlife frequenting the tract.

Overall, this is an absolute gem of a property that is of a size that is very difficult to find. Small tracts with premium crop ground and excellent hunting along the Verdigris River very rarely hit the market so dont miss your chance at this beautiful parcel.
