Description: The largest portion of the ranch is South Texas type
terrain with thick concentration of mesquite, oaks, and an incredible variety of
other superior tree and brush species favored by big whitetail bucks. Approximately
10 large food plots planted in high protein Illinois bundle flower, a thick blanket
of strong native grasses, and a year-round supplemental feed program provide an
unmatched level of quality wildlife nutrition.
Wildlife: The name Blue Mountain is synonymous with trophy
whitetail deer. In the past three years several trophy deer have been harvested.
The Texas Trophy Hunter television show and several others have chosen Blue Mountain
as one of their favorite feature destinations. In order to ensure the ranches
continued standard of impeccable deer quality, over 25 South Texas genetic
whitetail bucks and numerous bred does have been stocked at Blue Mountain in
the last 4 years from the VLC Scientific Whitetail and Cotton Mesa Whitetail
program, two of the largest and most highly respected in the country. In
addition, Blue Mountain has a Texas Parks and Wildlife Level 3 MLD Permit
which allows for 4 full months of whitetail deer management annually. Trophy
exotic species that call Blue Mountain home include aoudad sheep, fallow, axis,
Texas Dall sheep, and others. Javalina, as well as huge flocks of turkeys and
dove can be found throughout the ranch, and quail hunting is available year-round
with Blue Mountain’s private bird hunting permit. With seven 3-man deer
blinds set on concrete slabs, four portable 3-man blinds, and several tripod bow
stands, Blue Mountain is every hunter’s dream come true! There are
approximately 13 feed stations at Blue Mountain providing year-round free choice
protein pellets, corn, alfalfa hay and water to the deer.

approximately 3 miles of buried water line that provide water to wildlife in all
areas of the ranch.
Improvements: Improvements include a large manufactured
foreman’s house nestled in a beautiful grove of live oaks, as well as another
manufactured ranch hand house close by. The ranches original corrals, feed barns, and
cattle working pens have been restored near the main entrance to create a visual
reflection of Blue Mountain’s long ranching history. The property is perimeter
fenced by an 8-foot tight lock game fence constructed in 2001. Over 10 miles of interior
roads have been recently improved to provide 2-wheel drive access throughout the
ranch, and an additional 2 miles of road from Hwy 90 to the main lodge are topped in
Vulcan trap rock.

offers all of the assets that most hunters and ranch owners only dream about. With
large neighbors and hundreds of acres of unspoiled habitat, it has already established
itself as a whitetail enthusiast’s paradise. With its convenient location near

year-round recreational retreats!
