* PRICE REDUCED! * 55,439± Total Acres |  15,941± Deeded Acres |  9,208± NM State Lease Acres   |  30,290± BLM Acres   It is not often that we have an exclusive listing on a large livestock and recreation hunting operation that provides opportunity for grazing a lot of cows and the added benefit of having big bull elk, deer, and antelope roam within its boundaries.  The 100 Ranch lies north of the Sacramento Mountains a bit over one hour’s drive from Ruidoso, NM.   However, we believe the strongest amenity of this ranch, along with a wide variety of warm and cool-season grasses, is the excellent infrastructure consisting of 6 wells (four solar-two electric), 4 booster pumps (3 electric-1 solar), 16 large capacity water storage tanks, underground pipeline, 52 drinking tubs, and 38 earth stock tanks. Exterior and interior fences are in good overall condition with some being new.  Ranch roads are in good condition. The 55,439± acres is partitioned into 11 large pastures and 5 traps with 5 strategically located sets of pens.   Historical operation of this reputation ranch has been to graze mother cows. As of the marketing of this ranch, 860+ cows and calves, and 60 + bulls call the 100 Ranch their home. The ranch is permitted to run 1,183 cows and 17 horses. The 1,200 AU rating equates to 1 AU/46 acres, or 14 AU’s/section. Current grazing management reflects a rating closer to 10 AU’s/section. The additional grazing of a resident herd of elk puts the numbers closer to 975 AUs ±, or 11 AU’s/section.  Grama varieties are the predominate grass production. Areas of four-wing saltbush, or Chamiza enhance and supplement the browse forage throughout the ranch. Vast areas of the ranch have been improved by removal of piñon juniper and cholla cactus. The removal of these invaders allows for greater native grass production. TERRAIN   The terrain on the ranch varies from level and rolling plains on the east, to rolling to moderately steep piñon juniper canopy dotting the hillsides on the west. Elevations on the ranch range from approximately 5,600’ on the east to 6,800’ on the northwest.  There are adequate breaks and depressions on the ranch to assure livestock protection in the event of severe winter storms. IMPROVEMENTs   The 100 Ranch headquarters is improved with four mobile homes, two double-wide 2012 and 2014, and two single-wide mobile homes. There is also one site-built residence on the property. In addition, there is a barn, shop, newer equipment shed, scales, working and range corrals, hay barn, a 75-ton triple-bin overhead feeder, airplane hangar, RV Storage, storage containers, two refrigerated trailer storages, and a 12-run dog kennel. HUNTING •  WILDLIFE   As briefly discussed above, big game on the 100 Ranch consists of elk, mule deer, pronghorn antelope and the occasional oryx or gemsbok.  The ranch has a resident herd of elk roaming its boundaries. However, the ranch attracts an older population of big bull elk every year during the rut. The…
