This property is located in one of Montana’s trophy Elk hunting districts and is situated within a wildlife management area. This management strategy provides the elk with a safe wintering habitat, which is a significant factor contributing to the high number of large bulls in the Elk Horn Mountains. There are enough elk here that you can even apply for an extra cow elk tag. This also means that access is limited during the winter, and motorized vehicles are not allowed from December 2nd to May 15th every year. This is a Forest Service closure to protect the winter grounds for wildlife. The road is open in the Spring, Summer, and during the Fall hunting season. There are miles of roads to run your ATV on or take a drive on with your truck and enjoy the Montana mountains.

This also means that the Missouri River is only 15 miles away, boasting world-renowned fly fishing, making the Missouri a true Gem, you have a hard time finding a better location! This is the place to build your mountain escape, where you can imagine listening to elk bugling from your deck or while sitting around the campfire.
