THERE’S NOTHING LIKE IT IN THE WORLD. A PIECE<br />
OF LAND SO BIG, SO STORIED AND SO STEEPED IN<br />
FAMILY LEGACY THAT NO TITLE REPORT OR EVEN<br />
COMPLETE SURVEY EXISTED UNTIL THIS YEAR.<br />
here’s nothing like it in<br />
the world. A piece of land<br />
so big, so storied and so<br />
steeped in family legacy<br />
that no title report or<br />
even a complete survey<br />
existed until this year.<br />
The iconic W.T.<br />
Waggoner Ranch,<br />
America’s largest parcel<br />
of land “under one<br />
fence,” consists of more than 510,000<br />
contiguous acres encompassing an<br />
empire of oil fields, open ranges, fertile<br />
farming and endless miles of grazing<br />
land—all spread across six counties of<br />
Northwest Texas prairie and sweeping<br />
rangeland. Add to that thousands<br />
of cattle, enormous lakes, hundreds<br />
of foundation bred, award-winning<br />
American Quarter Horses and a legend<br />
as big as the ground it covers, and you’ll<br />
know why the W.T. Waggoner Ranch is<br />
considered one of the last remaining<br />
hallmarks of Texas cowboy culture.<br />
Now available for sale on the<br />
international open market, the W.T.<br />
Waggoner Ranch represents a singular<br />
opportunity so rare, we will never see<br />
the availability of such a property again<br />
in our lifetime. In fact, the last time this<br />
property was available for ownership,<br />
Abraham Lincoln was in Congress,<br />
California was petitioning to join the<br />
U.S. as a free state and Oklahoma was<br />
known simply as Indian territory.<br />
Headquartered in Vernon, Texas,<br />
the ranch covers 800 square miles<br />
of hills, vistas and plains, stretching<br />
through counties once roamed by the<br />
Comanches—Archer, Baylor, Knox,<br />
Wichita, Foard and Wilbarger.<br />
Since founder W.T. Waggoner<br />
first laid claim in 1849, the ranch has<br />
had a long and illustrious history as<br />
a cattle ranch with a reputation for<br />
both tradition and innovation. Today,<br />
the property is equally known as<br />
one of America’s best Quarter Horse<br />
operations featuring state-of-theart<br />
training and breeding facilities.<br />
The Waggoner Quarter Horses have<br />
been awarded countless honors and<br />
designations from the American Quarter<br />
