BROKER COMMENTS: This ranch is as untouched as when the Crow Indian Scouts used the high plateaus for lookout vantage points. Hard to find a property with such view sheds in all directions. The diverseness of terrane and the natural wildlife migration trails through the property making this a Hunters and Recreationalist haven. There are so many fantastic building sites throughout the property. If you are looking for a piece of property in The Last Best Place “Montana” the Peterson Ranch Elbow Creek Unit is a Must See!
