In 2021 my wife Jude and I (Erik) purchased 43 acres of Chihuahuan desert property in Terlingua, Texas close to Big Bend National Park. The land is entirely off grid, isolated, and amazing. Our goal is to build our own self sufficient home with solar and rain water catchment so we can move here full time.

Socked Fox Ranch is growing!


We recently closed the purchase of 21 acres adjacent to our current 43 acres. We don’t have any build plans for the added space right now but this gives us another road through our property. Using that road, we can cut a driveway to the back 20 acres of our current property that we didnt have a good way to get vehicles up to before. The image below is a rough estimate showing how the new property stacks up.
