Chief Joseph Cattle Ranch

Details & Features

Chief Joseph Cattle Ranch is a beautiful  2,505+ deeded acre ranch located in the pristine upper Big Hole Valley of southwest Montana.  The ranch currently supports a 1,200 head cow/ calf operation for the summer grazing season, while these cattle numbers are robust, there remains plenty of forage for the abundant big game populations. Of equal importance to the land, is of course the plentiful water.  The ranch benefits from strong water rights which are used to flood irrigate the lush green pastures which sit under the snowcapped granite peaks of the Upper Big Hole Valley. Previously used as an exclusive hunting retreat for a well-known musician,  the big game component on Chief Joseph Ranch is impressive. Of notable significance are the large numbers of elk that call the ranch home.  Chief Joseph Cattle Ranch presents an opportunity to own a nicely improved ranch with strong production and spectacular recreation located in a private setting under a backdrop of spectacular mountain scenery.
