Eason Ranch spans an impressive 10,880A± total acres in central New Mexico, consisting of 10,240A± deeded acres and 640A± acres of State Lease. Seventeen sections form a rare large-scale holding that operates as a productive cattle ranch while offering outstanding big game hunting across two Game Management Units. Ten sections lie within GMU 18, and seven-including the State Lease-fall in GMU 38, providing valuable hunting flexibility for elk, mule deer, oryx, and trophy pronghorn.
Broad rolling grasslands, scattered pinon-juniper, and expansive high plains views define the landscape. Strong native forage, dependable well water, and established pasture infrastructure support a sustainable working livestock operation. The ranch currently carries approximately 163 cow/calf pairs and is operated in partnership with a local cattleman who manages day-to-day grazing. The partner owns one-third of the herd, while the sellers retain ownership of the remaining two-thirds.
This structure provides a functional, income-producing cattle operation with experienced management in place, while allowing flexibility for a new owner to adjust or expand the program as desired.
Ranch improvements-including working pens with livestock scale, hay barn, older horse barn with stables, 30' x 60' metal shop, and a 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home-create a practical headquarters suited for both agricultural production and recreational use.
Eason Ranch represents a substantial New Mexico landholding where operational scale, wildlife opportunity, and diversified income through NRCS and CSP programs combine in a property of long-term value.
