Description
Highwood Mountain Cattle Ranch is positioned along the Highwood Mountain front in central Montana. Covering 3,630 total acres, the ranch offers a strong combination of productive grazing land, practical infrastructure, and direct access to public landsmaking it well-suited for both a production-focused operator and a buyer who values recreation and long-term land stewardship. The terrain transitions from rolling native grasslands to timbered foothills, providing diverse grazing environments and natural protection throughout the seasons. This variation supports healthy livestock movement, pasture rotation, and year-round usability. Water is well-distributed across the ranch, supporting both cattle and wildlife. Improvements have been developed with long-term function in mind. A well-established network of internal roads and trails provides reliable access to all major pastures and infrastructure. Cattle handling facilities are efficient and thoughtfully maintained, built to reduce stress and improve flow. Outbuildings serve a range of operational needs, from equipment storage to feed management, and are positioned for convenience without disrupting the landscape. The ranch borders the Lewis and Clark National Forest, providing direct access to expansive public ground. This boundary adds both privacy and recreational depth, with consistent elk and mule deer movement through the property. For those who value hunting, or simply quiet access to the backcountry, this property is ideal. Land management practices reflect a commitment to long-term viability. Grazing has been handled responsibly, with a focus on maintaining soil health, supporting riparian zones, and encouraging the regrowth of native grasses. The elevation and location provide favorable growing conditions and help buffer extreme weather. Highwood Mountain Cattle Ranch represents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven, well-balanced ranch in a tightly held region of Montana. It offers scale, functionality, and recreational upsidewith the infrastructure and land quality to support continued success. Ranch can be offered without the wind power lease for 11,250,000
