The Panther Canyon Ranch is located in the transitional area between the Edwards Plateau and the Trans-Pecos Region of Texas. This area is widely recognized as being some of the best, but very challenging hunting country in the state. Access to the property is considered good with access via graded caliche roads. The property is located in a fairly remote area of Texas, between Sanderson and Del Rio.

Panther Canyon Ranch offers a recreational experience for all types of outdoorsmen. The ranch has a large population of mule deer, blue quail, javelina, morning and white-wing dove.

We've all been there, wanting to "get away" from it all, well this is your chance - your moment - your opportunity to become a proud land owner!

This part of the state offers high mountains, deep canyons and ravines and beautiful panoramic views in all directions. Area vegetation includes mesquite, sage brush, black brush, catclaw, hackberry, desert willow, native grasses and hundreds of species of cactus. This diverse vegetation supports a large and varied number of wildlife.

There are many Indian artifacts and caves in the area just waiting for you to find them. This is a beautiful area.

The Big Sky presents some of the most colorful sunsets you will ever see. The night sky is so clear it will amaze you by how many stars you can see. There are no restrictions and Mobile Homes, Modular Homes, and RV's are all allowed. You can also camp on your property while you visit the sites in the area and enjoy the scenery.

Many Texans call this Texas' best-kept secret, because most Texans don't know about it, let alone most non-Texans. Nowhere in the desert southwest--not in Arizona, New Mexico, or California--will you find better country. The big difference is price. Similar land in other parts of the country sales for $1,000's per acre. This market inefficiency will not last for long. Prices in this area continue to rise as more people learn what this part of the state has to offer. Invest now while this opportunity still exists.

RECREATION

Hunting has been the primary focus on the Panther Canyon Ranch for many years. Both whitetail and mule deer flourish on the ranch and throughout this area. Area wildlife includes javelina, blue quail, morning dove, whitewing dove, coyote, bobcat, mountain lion, black bear (protected), fox, jack rabbit, and cottontail rabbit.

Vegetation on the ranch includes mesquite, sage brush, black brush, catclaw, hackberry, desert willow, native grasses and hundreds of species of cactus.

Terrell County has both mule deer and whitetail seasons, and is a two buck county for whitetail. If you have been searching for exceptional hunting property, Panther Canyon Ranch should definitely be considered.

Access to all tracts is by a caliche/gravel road, the road easement is 60 feet and is recorded and insured. All tracts can be accessed by a two wheel drive vehicle, however during times of excessive rains four wheel drive may be needed to access some parts of the ranch.

Email from Ron Stuckey, owner of Tracts 38 & 39 Panther Canyon North:

Is that pilot gonna buy tract 39 in PC? I don’t see that it’s been listed as sold on the website. It’s a gorgeous piece of land. If he saw pics on the website and was interested enough to drive all the way fm Houston, how could he say “no?” The area is so much more beautiful when you see it in person … breathtaking views and abundant wildlife.

In just 2.5 days on our property alone we saw 11 deer (4 bucks, 6 doe, 1 fawn), a javelina herd (1 boar, 3 babies, 7 adults), dozens of quail and dove, a tarantula, oodles of lizards, road runners, buzzards, mtn lion tracks, 3 sheds (6-pt and two 8-pt), giant millipedes (6” long), fluorescent grasshoppers, frogs and tadpoles, … We also saw 15 turkeys just outside of Sanderson alg Hwy 90. Driving alg Five Mile Hill Rd is like being on safari. I’ve already booked a rm, plane ticket and rental vehicle for my next visit in Jan 05!

Do you know of anyone who does photography in Sanderson? I thought Junior, a professional photographer, would bring a nice camera and take some panoramic shots of our property, but all he brought was a video camera. Hell, I brought one of those! So, I was wondering if someone in Sanderson does weddings, etc, and would be willing to take some professional photos of my property. I shot 4 hrs of video while I was there, but I would like to have a couple scenic views enlarged, framed and displayed in my house.

Thanks in advance for your help … again!

This diversity of plat life contributes to the truly outstanding hunting found in Terrell County and Panther Canyon Ranch. Although not as well known as many other areas of the state for hunting, Terrell County offers a wide and abundant variety of game including whitetail deer, mule deer, javelina, turkey, blue quail dove and mountain lions. Black bear, a protected species is also found in this region of Texas.

Welcome to Terrell County and Sanderson - the "Cactus Capital of Texas." Residents and officials alike strive to keep our existing quality of life and provide amenities and services that make Sanderson a wonderfully friendly place to visit.

Sanderson is the County Seat with a population currently of about 900. There are only 1,000 in the entire county. Dryden, 20 miles east, is the only other town in the county. About ten souls - plus a few goats and sheep - currently live there. Sanderson is approximately 3,000 feet above sea level. It is only 25-miles north of the U.S./Mexico border - although the nearest "legal" crossing is at Del Rio, 120 miles east. The town of Sanderson lies between beautiful canyons and enjoys a wonderful climate year-round. We have an exemplary public school, low crime and a low cost of living. And it's very quiet.

The native Apaches were one of the first peoples to inhabit Terrell County. By the time the railroad came through this area in the late 19th century, they had mostly been driven away by the U.S. Army forces stationed at Fort Lancaster to the northeast and Fort Davis to the west.

There are still many sites in the county that show evidence of these wonderful Native American tribes and their daily life. Pictographs, arrowheads and grind-holes can still be seen. Meyers Spring is one of the best-known pictograph sites in the area. It is currently a National Heritage Site.

Railroad surveyors reached what we now know as Sanderson in 1881. It was originally called Strobridge after the president of the then railroad construction company. In this harsh and desolate canyon country, there were only early sheep and cattle ranchers. But with the combination of the railroad and the early the sheep and cattle industries, Sanderson thrived for a time.

Terrell County was created by the Texas Legislature in 1905. About 1,500,000 acres of land was sectioned off from Pecos County.

The population decline began after the Interstate Highway 10 was built. Prior to that, U.S. Highway 90 was the main route to points east and west. In 1965, a devastating flood took 27 lives. Homes and buildings were destroyed or damaged and even highway bridges and the railroad suffered major damage. The town slowly recovered after the tragic loss but the population did not. The Southern Pacific railroad moved the crew-base from the Sanderson terminal in 1995 and this took many families out of Sanderson.

The number of large ranches have also since declined. The primary land use still is ranching but many ranchers have found new revenue sources from recreation and hunting. The County and School district are the largest employers. The Border Patrol is expanding its operations and this means that more people and families are moving in. Tourism is on the increase, which adds enormously to the economy.

If you are thinking about moving from the big city and enjoying a change of pace - almost a return to the lifestyle of the 1950's - consider moving to Sanderson. We always welcome guests and travelers alike.
