PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS

This irrigated 480± acre ranchland property can operate in a multitude of ways. Just 45 minutes from Bozeman and Helena, Montana—a property of this size and location is a rare find.

Currently operating under 3 new Reinke pivots, Toston Pivot’s size and location create productive hay and pasture ground. The property features multiple building sites, all which offer long valley views—certain to please the custom-home client. Elk, mule deer, antelope, and upland birds are drawn here, as this is the closest irrigated land to the Elkhorn Mountains.

Water is the star of this story. Gravity-fed from Crow Creek and holding senior water rights, Toston Pivot’s water is inexpensive and consistent. Cattle and horses would flourish here with plenty of room and grass to graze all season long. Planting custom food plots with alfalfa, sainfoin, and other perennial browse species to attract elk, deer, antelope, and upland birds is another option.

Toston Pivots is nestled in the foothills of the eastern flanks of the Elkhorn Mountains. Viewsheds to the west are outstanding and allow for amazing views of the early morning sunrise over the Big Belt Mountains on the eastern horizon. Thousands of miles of public BLM and Forest Service lands are accessible within a mile, an ideal recreational opportunity that doesn’t require the headache of trailering.

bozeman

Bozeman, Montana, is cited as the fastest growing micropolitan statistical area in the U.S. for the last three years. The city, once considered a cow town, is home to the state’s largest university, Montana State, and numerous upscale restaurants, hotels and shopping experiences. Big Sky Resort, Moonlight Basin and the Yellowstone Club, along with their ski runs and golf courses, are less than 90 minutes from the property.

helena

Established during the Montana gold rush in 1864, Helena was founded when four down on their luck miners unexpectedly struck it rich at Last Chance Gulch. As many other gold mines in the area were petering out, the strike at Last Chance Gulch made the area a boomtown. The arrival of the Northern Pacific Railroad and the dedication of the city as the territorial capital (formerly Virginia City) cemented Helena and helped it flourish even after the gold ran out. Today, Helena is the sixth largest city in Montana and serves as the state capital. Full of history, culture and surrounded by abundant outdoor recreation, Helena is a vibrant and thriving city.
