To the north is the Grape Vine access point while the Live Oak access point lies to the south, both capable of driving a sports car to the rivers edge. The vega along the river at the Live Oak access point stretches for nearly 1.5 miles providing another exceptional opportunity for usable river frontage. In addition to the river, the ranch boasts 18 water wells, the majority of which are operational and provide water access for wildlife, as well as distribution to drinkers and natural water features. Several of the water wells are capable of flow rates in excess of 100 GPM, ensuring a reliable and abundant water source throughout the property. TOPOGRAPHY AND RANGELANDS As you travel west from the Texas Hill Country to the Trans Pecos, there is a certain element that sets one ranch apart from another, known as the wow factor. The Silver S Ranch embodies the wow factor, thanks to its unique natural features and enhanced accessibility within the rugged terrain of the lower canyon lands of the Pecos River. In addition to the breathtaking Pecos River Canyon, the ranch is home to numerous other stunning canyons, including the massive Harkell Canyon and the equally impressive Moose Canyon. The property also boasts a variety of caves, shelters and rock art sites inviting exploration and discovery. Elevations range from about 1,320 feet to nearly 1,935 feet at several locations. Native grasses and a wide range of brush cover the ranch, with stands of live oaks and shin oaks found within the canyons and arroyos. Historically, much of the ranch was used for sheep grazing and some limited cattle grazing. It is currently managed for wildlife and has been for some time. WILDLIFE, HUNTING AND FISHING The Silver S Ranch is teeming with wildlife, offering an abundance of hunting and watching opportunities. The seller has made significant investments in the quail and deer populations as well as other wildlife. The ranch is home to quality populations of white-tailed deer, scaled quail, javelina, aoudad, dove and waterfowl. A year-round supplemental feeding program is in place with blinds and feeders placed across the property. Predators including mountain lions, coyotes, bobcats and foxes can also be found on the ranch. Occasionally a mule deer will make an appearance, and black bears are known to be expanding into the area. Birdwatching opportunities exist with migratory songbirds and raptors present at certain times of the year. Situated along the Monarch butterfly migration route, ranch owners can witness one of the worlds most awe-inspiring phenomena during the October migration. ROADS Access is one of the most crucial requirements for a property of this size. The Silver S Ranch delivers 24 miles of professionally-built roads with reinforced culverts, designed to last for years with minimal maintenance. There are two drive down roads leading directly to the river, both allowing 2WD access. Each road is strategically spaced about a days fishing or distance apart. These top-notch roads make the ranch usable at a level that is hard to replicate. HOMES AND STRUCTURES At the heart of Silver S is the main headquarters area that includes the newly-updated, historic 3-bedroom Merle and French Ingram cut limestone home that dates back to the 1930s. A small remodeled guest cabin, relatively new ranch hand trailer, an equipment barn, a shop, a storage barn, and several other outbuildings can also be found in the main headquarters area. To the north, there is an additional 4-bedroom ranch home with an open floorplan and nearby small barn used for hunting vehicle storage. This home is conveniently near the Pandale Road, allowing easy access to the property. To the south you will find a visually-appealing and comfortable 3-bedroom double-wide overlooking the stunning Pecos River and Harkell Canyon. SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS The Harkell Cave is hidden on the Pecos River side of Harkell Canyon with commanding views of the river. The cave has been cleaned and equipped with a fire pit, chairs and hefty supply of firewood, providing the perfect spot to relax, or enjoy the spectacular canyon and river views, complete with an adult beverage and cigar! The cave is accessible via trail and a set of custom steps with rails, making it an ideal retreat. The drivable access point at Live Oak has a beautifully maintained lawn in the river vega offering a scenic setting for camping and cookouts. The road leading out of the River through the ranchs Live Oak Pasture (named after the large Live Oak along the river that has managed to grow and thrive seemingly out of solid rock) is known as the Encino Solo Trail. In the early days of ranching in this part of Texas, the area ranchers used the Encino Solo Trail to cross the Pecos River and move their livestock from pastures east of the river to shipping points on the western side. On the northern portion of the river is The Grapevine entry point where swimmers, kayakers, and tubers can access the water for a peaceful float downstream to Live Oak. MINERALS AND COMMERCIAL WATER Approximately 3,950+ acres are state classified minerals, and the rights associated with those will convey. There are no leases or production in place.

Jim Hogg County, TX 78358

The Crestonio Ranch is perhaps one of the finest and most complete South Texas hunting ranches to be offered on the market. Extensive and refined improvements match the sprawling 12,078-acre ranch just north of Hebbronville. The crown jewel of the operation is the quail hunting, which is outstanding. 9,579 +/- acres of the ranch are high-fenced and over many years the deer herd has been developed to be one of the finest in Texas with multiple 200+ inch scored deer harvested. Tremendous dove hunting, plentiful turkey, and the entire ranch is set up to facilitate an efficient cattle operation. The improvements on the property are highly refined for entertaining guests in South Texas luxury. The Crestonio is truly a complete ranch that has been patiently created to become a true Texas playground and working ranch. LOCATION The ranch is located just northeast of Hebbronville, Texas. It has extensive frontage on both FM 359 and State Highway 16. TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT Soils on this ranch are dominated by fine sandy loams of the northwestern sand areas of South Texas (primarily Delmita and Delmita Bruni complexes). These soils are slightly tighter than some of the sugar sands found further south but have the ability to retain moisture better during drier periods common in South Texas. The ranch is a mixture of more open native and some improved grasslands along with brush species commonly found in this region of Texas including catclaw, black brush, mesquite, and guayacan. The land generally has gently rolling topography with over 70’ of relief between the high and low points of the ranch. There are a few minor drainages that run through the property, and there are multiple ponds, lakes and watering holes. WILDLIFE Northern Bobwhite Quail: The primary quarry for hunters on the ranch is bobwhite quail. Much of the ranch is committed to maximizing quail habitat and production through rotational grazing, prescribed burning, and mulching quail strips. The ranch is parceled into 24 separate pastures to manage the cattle herd and promote consistently high-quality quail populations. Water is distributed efficiently throughout the ranch with nowhere on the property further than a 1/4 mile from a water source. These practices coupled with naturally productive soils, grasses, and brush provide some of the highest quail production you will find. The Crestonio ranch has developed a system balancing open grasslands and brush conducive to these types of soils that has created what is likely the most consistent wild quail ranch in South Texas. Over the past four years, the ranch reported the following: ’20-’21 – 28 coveys per day in field average ’21-’22 – 31 coveys per day in field average ’22-’23 – 20 coveys per day in field average ’23-’24 – 23 coveys per day in field average Quail “top day” numbers for each year: ’20-’21 34 Coveys ’21-’22 54 Coveys ’22-’23 37 Coveys ’23-’24 45 Coveys Looking at the long-term averages of quail population in South Texas none of the last four years were considered better than average. This is an astounding achievement on Crestonio considering these were all below average years for the region. White-tailed Deer: The deer herd in the 9,579-acre high-fenced pasture has been intensively managed for over 20 years. The pragram’s goal has been to produce large trophy bucks each year. Initially, the TTT program was used to introduce females from ranches in South Texas which had known trophy deer programs in place. An intense culling program was established to eliminate bucks from the standing herd with undesirable antler characteristics. Texas Parks and Wildlife DMP pens were then constructed and utilized to enhance the genetics in the pasture. This intense management is currently producing several mature bucks over 200” per year. Due to exceptional fawn survival each year, an intense supplemental protein feeding program and a highly developed water distribution system, the white-tailed deer population should sustain a recommended buck harvest of over 100 bucks per year. The deer herd is kept around a deer per 20 acres so that the plan is manageable, and there is a very even age-class structure throughout the property. Rio Grande Turkey: Multiple large oaks, bull mesquites, cedar elms, and hackberries provide plenty of roosting areas for turkey and they are plentiful on the ranch. White-winged & Mourning Dove: Dove hunting on the ranch is strongly supported by multiple ponds that are edge-manicured to provide outstanding dove hunting opportunities. Both white-winged and mourning doves are abundant on the Crestonio. IMPROVEMENTS The luxurious contemporary main lodge sits adjacent to a 7-acre lake with expansive porches, a boat house, a fire pit, pool/spa and outdoor dining with fireplaces for entertaining on cooler nights. The custom-designed lodge was built to the finest detail and includes a den, sitting room, dining room, and breakfast room included in the huge kitchen. The master bedroom is separated from the lodge and the eight guest cabanas all surround a lovely courtyard with a water fountain and live oaks. There is a game room and TV room adjacent to the main lodge. Next to the main lodge is a classic gun room for preparing for the hunt and a large enclosed equipment barn to hold the many quail rigs and hunting trucks. There is a separate ranch operations area with multiple barns, a game cleaning station, equipment storage, grain bins, dog kennels, and a second lodge is also just down the road from the main lodge. Several more homes are scattered throughout the property for ranch hands and spillover for large guest parties. WATER The ranch sits on the Gulf Coast Aquifer and most of the water wells are between 275’ and 650’ deep and all produce significant water volumes between 30 gpm and 200 gpm. There are 21 electric wells and 5 solar wells on the ranch and over 28 miles of water lines to distribute the water. AGRICULTURE The Crestonio Ranch is also an outstanding cattle ranch. The ranch is currently running about 300 cow-calf pairs and over 200 yearlings. The rotation of the cattle through the ranch’s 24 pastures promotes soil health and new growth of forbs and grasses. Multiple sets of cattle pens are located strategically throughout the ranch. ELECTRICITY Electricity is found at various places throughout the ranch. MINERALS There is no production on the entire ranch. This is a surface estate sale only. The Crestonio Ranch is co-listed between and Republic Ranches, LLC and Dan W Kinsel III Ranch Broker.

The current owners have typically maintained several improved pastures in coastal over the years. There is enough roll and topographical change to allow for expansive view sheds and privacy alike. Blanco Creek is the western border of the ranch, while Mucorrera Creek traverses the ranch near the eastern border, offering stunning cliffs and deep pools during normal times. Blanco Creek also offers recreational activities like fishing and canoeing at times. WILDLIFE The low-fenced ranch is surrounded by other large properties, creating a haven for wildlife.

The Battle of Goliad was a minor skirmish early in the war. However, the subsequent battle of Coleto was an important battle that culminated on March 27, 1836. Col. James Fannin and his Texan soldiers were executed by the Mexican army, under orders from Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna, in what became known as the Goliad Massacre. This event led to the Texas Revolutionary battle cry “Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!” Although many remember the Alamo today, fewer remember Goliad. The site of the massacre is located near Presidio la Bahia, just south of the town of Goliad. CONSERVATION EASEMENT In 2005, with a desire to conserve the heritage of the ranch, the owners donated a landowner friendly conservation easement to The Nature Conservancy of Texas and have continued to operate the ranch as they always have. The owners have made the decision to sell the “Berclair Ranch” portion of the parent ranch to their future neighbor as they will continue to own and operate on the ranch to the north that is also governed by the same conservation easement. The Berclair Ranch does include a 10 acre building envelope for the construction of a new headquarters should the next steward desire to do so. Please contact Broker for additional information. OTHER The west and east pastures of the Berclair Ranch are separated by paved Power Road that provides not only great access to different pasture gates, it also provides a cattle drive lane frequently used by the ranch. Power Road terminates at the end of the ranch and has limited use overall. The historic Moya family cemetery (aka Mucorrera Cemetery) is located in the east pasture and is used infrequently by Moya family descendants.
