78 Acres of Montana Property for Sale bordering National Forest for over ½ of a mile. This property is situated in the Elkhorn Mountains. It features its own private, gated road with several cabin sites, making it ready for you to pull your camper today or build a mountain getaway. This property comprises four individual properties, making it an excellent opportunity to purchase with family or friends. From this property, you can walk or ride out onto the National Forest and go for miles and miles. The fact is, this property borders more National Forest property than you could cover in a lifetime! The views appear to have been straight out of a postcard from Montana. Enjoy the neighbors – Elk, Deer, Moose, Big Horn Sheep, and black bear. 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. Enjoy all remote Montana has to offer, but you're still only 15 miles from Townsend, where you can get all the supplies you need and even a warm meal and a cold beer! And you're only 40 miles south of Helena and about 65 miles north of Bozeman, MT. That also means you're only 20 miles from Canyon Ferry Lake. Fishing on Canyon Ferry is off the charts good; the lake is full of Trout, walleye, Pike, and Perch. 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. If you have dreamed of this, this is the property for you.
