Northwest Kansas has plenty to offer to whitetail hunters across the nation with its rugged native grassland, fertile crop fields, and wooded tributaries throughout.

The rarity of the opportunity to purchase a property fitting this criteria cannot be overstated. This land offering consists of nearly a full mile of the South Fork of the Solomon River twisting and turning through the center creating incredible habitat for holding, growing, and strategically hunting trophy whitetails year after year.

Northwest Kansas has plenty to offer to whitetail hunters across the nation with its rugged native grassland, fertile crop fields, and wooded tributaries throughout. Anyone who has hunted this part of the State will tell you the most desirable hunting is along the heavily timbered river and creek bottoms because of the plentiful cover compared to the surrounding land, typically a steady water source, and most commonly fertile bottomland farm ground that provides the local wildlife with a reliable food source throughout the year. The rarity of the opportunity to purchase a property fitting this criteria cannot be overstated. This land offering consists of nearly a full mile of the South Fork of the Solomon River twisting and turning through the center creating incredible habitat for holding, growing, and strategically hunting trophy whitetails year after year. Nearly every tree lining the riverbed is deeply scarred with deer rubs, fresh and old, leaving a lot to the imagination. There are areas along the river bend that consist of nearly a ¼ mile of timber cover extending from the actual riverbed to the edge of the tree line to the north. This area of the property is a super highway for deer with trails crisscrossing throughout and distinct areas of bedding cover. A southward facing slope along the North edge of the river bottom is lined with mature trees perfect for hanging stands that allow for unobtrusive entry/exit for early morning and afternoon hunts. The portion of the property north of the river bottom consists of rolling sand hills, tall grass varieties, and thickets and cedar trees scattered throughout which seamlessly compliments the habitat within the river bottom. The tall grass varieties provide excellent ground cover for the deer to feel safe when they step out of the timber. When undisturbed, many deer will prefer to bed within the thickets and warm grass varieties in this area as well. There is an extreme elevation change on the very East border of this portion of the property that perfectly blocks the view of the internal qualities of this land from the road, and also creates an incredible area for scouting the property during early season and setting up for early season muzzleloader or late season rifle hunting. Any sort of food source, food plot or supplement feeders, within this portion of the property will only increase the number of deer living within the borders as well. The acreage lying south of the riverbed consists of approximately 32 acres of tillable cropland that can be rented out to generate steady income from the land. Of course, this acreage also provides an excellent food source for the wildlife making this property even more attractive to deer and turkey. This land offering is truly what dreams are made of. Live water, immense timber cover, and tons of deer sign in an area that is known for producing giants. It is very rare to find this much river bottom cover and this high of percentage of huntable acres packaged up at this price in northwest Kansas. This is the real deal. Do not miss out!
