Topography, Rangeland & Habitat:

Towering live oaks, lush native grasslands, seasonal canyons, and hardwood-lined ridges create a vibrant habitat for both wildlife and people. Purgatory Creek winds through the northern portion of the property, enhancing its scenic and ecological value.
Purgatory Bend Ranch South boasts outstanding “pasture appeal,” thanks to an array of mature live oaks (many adorned with Spanish moss), cedar elms, native grasses, and the dramatic bluffs of Purgatory Creek. The terrain is highly varied, offering open uplands, wooded draws, and deep canyons.
This diversity supports rich wildlife habitat and stunning view corridors throughout the property.
