Bozeman, Montana, United States
760 Acres • GMU: General
Price Includes
1 Guest
1 Day
We have a small flock of turkeys that will hang out on the hillsides.
Turkey hunters will most likely see Merriam's out on the property in this part of Montana.
The ranch is a 110-year-old family property rich in history and amazing beauty with its spectacular views of the Spanish Peak range.
There is over a mile of the West Gallatin River running through the bottomland of the property. The river property also includes a couple of islands that are ideal for archery hunters if you are up for a little adventure.
It is strongly recommended you bring appropriate gear for crossing the river. Fishing waders and boots make crossing a bit easier. We recommend you follow the track on onX for best path to the island. Extra socks and water-proof storage for your phone is also strongly recommended in case you fall in. Call the LandTrust team at (406) 709-8450 for any questions prior to your trip!
The Ranch supports a herd of Red Angus cattle, mule deer, whitetail deer, private fishing access on the river and abundant waterfowl. We are located 12 miles from Bozeman and the airport.
Additional packages can be accommodated. Inquire for more information.
