The Summit West Ranch is located in the Eldorado Plateau with noteworthy upland depressions or playas and wet weather draws. These playas seasonally hold healthy amounts of water creating wetlands in a semi arid region. The gentle rolling topography of the ranch consists of deep soils, promoting growth of bull mesquites and native grasses. The ranch features a mix of dense mesquite cover to open areas of grass and succulents.
WILDLIFE
The ranch is divided by FM 408 and both pastures are high-fenced to help manage the variety of native and exotic game. The ranch hosts populations of white-tailed deer, rio grande turkey, bobwhite quail, and varmints plus exotics.
Years ago the white-tailed deer herd in the eastern portion was managed more intensively and likely still benefits from those efforts. Over the years exotics have been introduced including axis deer, aoudad, sika, blackbuck and scimitar oryx. There are high-fenced pens that can be used for soft release or breeding activity to improve the wildlife herds as well.
There are multiple dirt tanks that are supplemented by the water wells that offer great wing-shooting opportunities for both dove and seasonal waterfowl.
AGRICULTURE
The ranch has historically been grazed with cattle and benefits from internal pasture fencing and distributed water resources.
