I'd think 25 acres out there would feel like a postage stamp!

I grew up in the neighborhood and I'm sure it will be split up
Sad to see that country divided up.

Yep, and if they'll subdivide, I call dibs on 1,000 adjoining BBNP.

I can't believe this is $600/acre. That's insane. When it got to $20 I remember my dad and his buddies talking about it like the world had ended.

I think was originally listed at $850MM - I remember seeing massive ranch 1-2 years ago at that price located next to Big Bend. Had to be the same one. State should buy it with all the critical habitat it has

Your dad thought $20 an acre was expensive?

Have you ever been there? Carrying capacity is probably 1 animal unit per 70 acres. I remember when Claytie Williams sold the cattle off the Elsinore after it sold. I think they gathered about 2,500 cows off a little more than 400 sections. The Elsinore bordered this property.

From a cattleman's perspective that makes sense but I'm not sure the value of this ranch is it's rangeland

I'm thinking about this more....fill it with yurts and make a killing!

Then you have plenty of acreage left over to Bury as many bodies as needed.....thst can be priceless to the right buyer

I have given it some thought, and there is too much brown and not enough green and it is way too close to Mexico. Otherwise, I'd be all over it.

I was speaking to the fact that $20/acre was big money back when land sold for it's productive value.

Yes. Many times.

I too will decline to purchase this ranch and it has nothing to do with the price tag

If your luck is such that you get drawn to mule deer hunt at Big Bend Ranch State Park, you'll understand why your assigned compartment is 9 to 12 square miles.

If your luck extends beyond being drawn, you may even see a deer.

This. Most of the game and wildlife in that area live and stay within some reasonable traveling distance to a natural water source.
If you get a 1000 acres that is a good way from any water all you will see is lizards and sidewinders.

Thinking if I win the next powerball, I could maybe afford this.

This has been for sale for a while. I think they even offer smaller sections of it for higher price/acre.

Yes, you could afford to buy it. Make sure you got some lucky numbers ready for the next drawing so you have capital to afford to keep it.

I love that area. Spend several weeks each year at the national and state park. I don't know what I'd do with it but if I had throw away money I'd buy it. Probably donate it to the state as parkland. I don't trust the NPS to do it right.

TPWD wouldn't be any better if Fairfield Lake is any indication. Idiots.

Yeah, that's for sure. I just rather keep it "local". At least we know that enemy

This is all Brad Kelly's country. King has had it listed for 2 years or so in different configurations. That Tesnus Ranch is a neat place and would be the first part sold, if any was going to sell in my opinion. The rest of that country is harsh. Overall crazy price but it generates headlines because of the size.
