General Description
Double R Ranch consists of a balance of rolling native grass pastures, dryland hay, and several seasonal creek bottoms, providing quality summer grazing for yearlings and/or cow-calf pairs, complemented with an abundance of hay production. The native rangeland is comprised mostly of cool and warm season grasses and is dominated by western wheat grass. The ranch headquarters are located just off a county road and along Lone Tree Creek. The headquarters include a home and shop along with cattle working facilities. The ranch is blessed with an exceptional deep water well that provides 200 to 250 gallons per minute of water via pipeline to livestock tanks and domestic use. Fences are in top-notch shape, with many of them recently replaced. Traditionally, the ranch has summered 1,000 head of yearlings for a four and a half month grazing period and produced 1,400 to 1,500 tons of hay. A second set of shipping corrals are centrally located just off the county road.
