"Top o’ the World” Views on 20 Montana Acres!
This 20-acre lot in Ponderosa Pines sits high on a ridge with wide-open views to the east and west—perfect for sunrise, sunset, and watching storms roll across the valley. Remote and off-grid, it’s a solid choice for anyone looking to build a simple cabin, set up a base camp, or just get away.
The land is raw and wild. Night skies are pitch black. Most people out here run on solar, propane, or wind, and haul water or collect rain. A Rural Improvement District, about $380/year, already factored into the taxes, helps maintain subdivision roads. Lightning Ridge Trail is maintained by property owners.
At just over 20 acres, the property qualifies for ag tax status, keeping holding costs low. You’ll feel a world away, but you’re still only 45 minutes from I-90 at Logan and just over an hour to Bozeman Airport. Missouri River fishing access is 30 minutes down the road, and there’s public land all around for hunting, hiking, and exploring.
If you're ready for a true getaway, contact me or your agent for more information and directions.
