680 acres +/- located in Sharp Co. due east of the community of Sitka, AR. The 'Sitka Tract' is a mixed combo of freshly harvested timber with the remaining balance of approx. 350 + acres of standing hardwoods, creating the best of both worlds in terms of wildlife habitat. You've got an abundance of bedding and nesting grounds in the recent cut for deer, turkey, and small game along with a vast amount of mast producing trees that remain to help feed wildlife using the property. The lessees hunting the property have a food plot along the east side that was littered in deer traffic as well as other deer stands / feeders throughout. Osburn creek runs through the east portion of the property from north to south as well as intersecting back through the south portion before officially exiting the property for good. There are other small wet weather creeks as well as a pond nestled in one of the cutovers that provide as a source of water. The uploaded aerial map provided in the listing will give a recent Birdseye view of what areas of timber have been harvested as well as the great roads/trails that allow easy access on the majority of this large tract. Rather than turning back east onto Schales Rd. at Sitka to go to the property, you can turn west onto Rock Creek Rd. and be at Harold E. Alexander WMA in just 1 mile. Harold E. Alexander WMA consists of over 13,000 acres that was purchased in 1976 with the primary goal of creating optimum habitat conditions for whitetail deer & turkey. Practices such as fire lanes, food plots, controlled burns, timber management, and construction of nesting/refuge structures. This WMA is a draw only for turkey hunting but is by far my favorite place to turkey hunt in the state of Arkansas. This 680 acres +/- tract has all the right bones and one could clone those practices to continue making this big parcel an exceptional wildlife farm. Property has been surveyed and lines painted.
