Eve Ranches

Montana Little Valley and Ashby Creek Units Eve Ranches comprises two classic Montana ranches, Montana Little Valley Ranch and Ashby Creek Ranch, that are offered together for the first time ever, representing one of the largest ranch investment opportunities in western Montana today. Between the two ranches, the combination of deeded and leased ground totals over 22,000 acres, translating to over 35 square miles of land in Montanas Blackfoot and Avon Valleys. While each ranch is its own standalone operation, when combined, they are mutually beneficial, with Ashby Creek Ranch serving as a hay base proximate to the vibrant city of Missoula and the Montana Little Valley Ranch providing extensive mountain and meadow grazing combined with unmatched wilderness recreation. Montana Little Valley Unit The Montana Little Valley Ranch is a stunning property located in the Avon Valley of western Montana. It spans over 11,100 deeded acres of grasslands, meadows, and mountainsides, with an additional 9,956 leased acres. The ranch is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including elk, deer, bear, wolf, antelope, moose, waterfowl, and grouse. The lower elevations of the ranch consist of productive grasslands and timbered foothills that transition into higher elevations and wilder country, where much of the leased acreage is landlocked and interspersed with the deeded acreage in a checkerboard fashion. The ranch is easily accessible through an extensive road system, providing ample opportunities for recreation in the areas most remote and wild terrain. Additionally, the property is adjacent to thousands of acres of BLM lands and the Hoodoo Mountain Wilderness Study Area, offering seamless access for additional recreation. The ranch includes numerous creek drainages, springs, and wallows, providing water to the livestock and wildlife, and two high mountain reservoirs with wild trout populations. Ashby Creek Unit Ashby Creek Ranch is rich with agricultural history and features a distinctive blend of agricultural production, wildlife habitat, and recreation opportunities, all supported by abundant water and the diversity of ecosystems throughout its acreage. This ranch serves as the hay base for Montana Little Valley Ranch and includes a total of 1,739 deeded acres and a location in the Potomac area of the Blackfoot Valley. The makeup of acreage includes 775 acres of cropland, of which 340 acres are irrigated by three pivots and six-wheel lines. This productive ground provides a hay supply for the winter and features a convenient proximity to Missoula, Montanas most vibrant city. While each ranch can be its own standalone operation, when combined, they are mutually beneficial, with Ashby Creek Ranch serving as a hay base proximate to the vibrant city of Missoula and Little Valley, providing extensive mountain and meadow grazing combined with unmatched wilderness recreation.
