Habitat & Cover
The property features mixed hardwoods along the western edge and southern boundary, complemented by native grasses and a variety of Iowa wildflowers across the interior.

Its location next to public land and neighboring WRP tracts managed by conservation-minded duck hunters further enhances the hunting opportunities. With surrounding agriculture to the north, wildlife has abundant food sources in close proximity to secure cover.
