There are awesome exposed logs from that original cabin bringing the essence of the historical value, and the home is undergoing some revamping to freshen up for its new owners. The soil in the area is nutrient and fertile as the garden produces potatoes weighing in at almost a pound each! There are two wells and an artesian well that runs to the house.

The river is home to catfish, small mouth bass, and muskee. Take a swim for some sunny day summer fun or float and get a drink of some Vitamin D. With so many possibilities, this ranch provides recreation, agriculture, and a dwelling. Now all it needs is you! Local Area Miles City, Montana is in southeastern Montana and depicts life and how it was lived in the “Old West.” It was incorporated in 1887 after the Northern Pacific Railroad arrived in 1881 providing a direct shipping avenue to packing plants in the eastern part of the country. Miles City is rich with history from the early explorers and frontiersman passing through to the soldiers and ranchers utilizing the fertile grazing land. The town is known as the commerce and medical hub of the region. The area has many recreational opportunities with the meeting of the two rivers, the Yellowstone and the Tongue River. Locals and visitors alike spend their free time fishing, hunting, bird watching, rock collecting, golfing, or walking the paths along the river. The information is provided by outside sources and deemed reliable but not guaranteed by the brokerage firm, its agents or representatives. Buyers and their agents are encouraged to conduct due diligence, and verify to their satisfaction, the information contained herein regarding property. Hunting and Fishing The Tongue River Valley is a mecca for lush vegetation, fresh waters, and wildlife. It provides ideal habitat for wild game before the river reaches the Big Horn Mountains. Trophy white-tailed and mule deer are harvested, and antelope and prairie elk roam the gently rolling plains with upland birds and nomadic wild turkeys. The Big Horn National Forest has excellent hunting opportunities for deer, elk, bear, and mountain lion. The property for sale is located in Hunting District 702. The Tongue River provides water sports, fishing, and recreating especially at the Tongue River Reservoir State Park. Here, the reservoir stretches out for 12 miles flowing through the juniper canyons and open prairies. Anglers from both Montana and Wyoming frequently visit to fish, camp, and boat. Numerous state record fish have been pulled from these waters. Species include crappie, walleye, bass, northern pike, and catfish. Fly fishers can try their hand below the dam on the river. Enjoy the wildlife and opportunities to see blue herons, osprey, deer, antelope, and bald eagles. The winter months can be fun too as the reservoir keeps locals busy ice fishing.

  • WATER RESOURCES/LITIGATION Special Report #2282 Montana V
    WATER RESOURCES/LITIGATION Special Report #2282 Montana v. Wyoming/Yellowstone River Compact February 9, 2018 On January 10, the Special Master submitted his final report to the U.S. Supreme Court on Montana v. Wyoming (No. 137). The Yellowstone River Compact provides for the continued enjoyment of Montana’s downstream appropriative rights existing as of 1950. Montana filed suit in 2008 over Wyoming diversions on the Tongue River, an interstate tributary to the Yellowstone River with multiple reservoirs that store extremely variable flows. The case was bifurcated into liability and remedy phases. The U.S. Supreme Court determined in 2016 that Wyoming violated the Compact, and was liable for the withdrawal of 1,300 acre-feet in 2004, and 56 acre-feet in 2006. “This Report deals with the remedies that the Court should provide to Montana.” In addition to monetary damages of $20,340 and certain costs of bringing the lawsuit, the Special Master recommended declaratory relief to “provide the parties with critical guidelines for their future management of the Tongue River and hopefully help avoid future disputes. I recommend against injunctive relief. Wyoming has repeatedly stated that it will comply with the Court’s orders and rulings and, although there is little history of cooperation between Montana and Wyoming in managing the Tongue River, the record fails to show a significant chance of repeat violations in the future.” The Special Master added that the nature of the Compact makes it difficult to avoid all future disputes. The two states
