Description
Situated on the east flank of the valley, the 4,667 acre Bitterroot Hunting Retreat offers a well-blocked and private holding, one hour from Missoula, Montanas second largest city. Nestled in the foothills of the Sapphire Range, this sprawling complex delivers a classic foothill assemblage with expansive, gently ascending native range below giving way to forested ridges and gullies in the upper elevations. With a five-mile boundary with Lolo National Forest, the recreational opportunities are significant on both the deeded and public ground. The ranch is lightly yet thoughtfully improved with a lodge and two remote cabins. The ranch is situated in Hunting District 261, one of Montanas top Trophy Mule Deer Management areas. In addition to quality mule deer, elk utilize the property in both archery and rifle season offering good representative bulls. Other species such as whitetail deer, black bear, mountain lion, grouse, and a myriad of smaller game and birds call the ranch home. In addition to the hunting, the property offers a multitude of recreational pursuits, including horseback riding, hiking, four-wheeling/trail riding, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and bird watching. The vast mountain ranges, beautiful meadows, long vistas, and lush valleys contribute to the area and includes trail systems which offer additional recreational experiences. The Bitterroot Hunting Retreat, offers top-shelf improvements, rich topographical diversity, and healthy populations of big game in an accessible and a desirable Western Montana locale.
