BEAR MOUNTAIN RANCH

BEAR MOUNTAIN RANCHA Rare North Texas Mountain Ranch - Where Texas Meets Colorado
A Mountain Above the Rest. A Ranch Unlike Any Other.

Welcome to Bear Mountain Ranch, an extraordinary and truly one-of-a-kind North Texas property crowned by Bear Mountain, the highest named mountain peak in Jack County, rising to approximately 1,437 feet in elevation. With more than 350 feet of elevation change across the ranch, this remarkable landscape offers a dramatic topography rarely found in North Texas. From the mountain's towering crest and spectacular cliffs to its rolling terrain and expansive valleys, Bear Mountain Ranch delivers breathtaking panoramic views in every direction.

On a clear day, Possum Kingdom Lake and numerous surrounding landmarks can be seen from the mountain. The scenery is so spectacular that photographs simply cannot do it justice. Standing atop Bear Mountain, surrounded by the rugged beauty, dramatic elevation, and sweeping vistas, you could easily imagine yourself in the mountains of Colorado rather than North Texas.

This is more than a ranch. It is a destination, a landmark, and an opportunity to own a truly distinctive piece of Texas.

LAND, ELEVATION & WATER

One of the ranch's most remarkable features is its natural mountain drainage, which feeds six established stock tanks. Remarkably, these tanks have never completely dried up, and several are stocked with bass, catfish, and perch. The natural drainage also provides excellent opportunities for developing at least three additional tanks, if desired.

The ranch is blessed with dramatic cliffs, varied terrain, scenic valleys, and an extensive road system. A road follows the entire crest of the mountain, allowing access from one end to the other while providing multiple spectacular viewing locations. The current owner has invested more than 21 years of care and attention into maintaining the property, including grading and maintaining roads to provide access throughout the ranch.

HUNTING, WILDLIFE & RECREATION

Bear Mountain Ranch offers exceptional recreational and hunting opportunities. Existing hunting stands and feeders are strategically located to take advantage of the abundant wildlife, including trophy whitetail deer, turkey, hogs, and other native game.

Approximately two-thirds of the ranch is already high-fenced, offering an excellent foundation for someone interested in exotic wildlife, trophy game management, or controlled wildlife operations.

The remaining third includes approximately 85 acres enclosed by relatively new five-strand barbed-wire fencing and cross-fenced to provide improved pasture management for cattle. Three stock tanks are located within this pasture enclosure, providing dependable water access for livestock.

Whether your vision is a premier hunting retreat, an exotic game operation, a working cattle ranch, or a private family getaway, Bear Mountain Ranch offers the versatility to accommodate a variety of interests.
