IJM Ranch is a federal BLM grazing allotment for 169 animal units. The ranch is comprised of 1,525 deeded acres more or less together with 8,149 federal BLM acres, 144 New Mexico State lease acres and 491 uncontrolled acres.

IJM is an improved property with the basic infrastructure necessary for day to day operations. Headquarters is centrally located and accessed by Rat Camp Road which is a gravel county road.
At headquarters is a modest 2 bedroom, one bath camp house, corrals, cattle processing facilities and storage buildings. The ranch is developed with four pastures plus 2 traps. Livestock pens are located at headquarters and to the southeast at the Solar Well Pens. Water is supplied by one principal well located at headquarters. The well will produce up to 25 gpm, has electric service, submersible pump and a new $35,000 Commercial Reverse Osmosis (RO) water treatment facility. The RO system produces approximately 4,000 to 6,000 gallons of potable water available daily.

Location of the ranch is east of the Pecos River at an elevation of 3,400 to 3,600 feet. The terrain is gently rolling with a balanced mix of sand and tight soils. Vegetation is diverse to include many grasses, browse, and cactus. Principle grasses include grama grasses, sand dropseed, muhly grasses, vine mesquite, and tobosa. Chamisa is the primary browse.
