  • Hunting Districts 315 and 580)
    CRAZY MOUNTAINS EMU (Hunting Districts 315 and 580) Description: This 1,708-square-mile EMU includes the Crazy Mountain Range and adjacent foothill and prairie habitats in south central Montana. The area is a mixture of private (78%) and public (22%) lands, including portions of both the Gallatin and Lewis and Clark national forests (16%), state school trust lands (DNRC – 5%), and USDI Bureau of Land Management (BLM – 0.2%). Land ownership patterns within the boundary of the national forests are characterized by checkerboard ownership. The EMU contains two roadless areas encompassing 149,467 acres of public and private lands that offer wilderness-type recreation. However, much of this roadless area is not elk habitat. This EMU contains over 590,000 acres of occupied elk habitat (54% of EMU). National forest lands provide a large portion of spring, summer and fall elk habitat, but private lands in mountain foothill and sagebrush-grassland habitats provide over 80% of elk winter range during normal winters and virtually all of the available winter range during severe winters. Public Access: Access by road to elk habitat is limited in most of HD 580 where the checkerboard pattern of land ownership complicates management of access. With few exceptions, public access to elk habitat on the north and east slopes of the Crazies is controlled entirely by private landowners. There are only 3 points in HD 580 where the public may legally access national forest lands – the Big Timber Canyon road in the southeast corner, the Cottonwood Creek/Forest Lake road on the north end and Sixteenmile Creek in the northwest corner of the hunting district.

  • Musselshell/Golden Valley Counties Long Range Plan 2019
    Musselshell/Golden Valley Counties Long Range Plan Roundup Service Center Written May 2019 Section I Introduction Purpose The purpose of this plan is to create a working document that describes the natural resources of Musselshell and Golden Valley Counties, inventories resource problems as they exist currently, and prioritizes projects for NRCS cost assistance programs. The Roundup NRCS Field Office services both Musselshell and Golden Valley Counties. The Lower Musselshell Conservation District (LMCD) encompasses both counties as well. This long- range plan will be written to that scale and scope. There are many conservation partners in Musselshell and Golden Valley Counties: • Lower Musselshell Conservation District (LMCD) • Farm Service Agency (FSA) • Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) • Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) • Montana State University Extension Service (MSU Extension) • Bureau of Land Management (BLM) • Deadman’s Basin Water Users Association (DMBWA) • County Weed Districts (Musselshell and Golden Valley) • United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) • Musselshell Watershed Coalition (MWC) • Delphia -Melstone Water Users Association (DMWUA) This plan will look at priorities for conservation work in Musselshell and Golden Valley Counties over the next 5 to 10 years. However, this plan should be reviewed annually and adjusted as necessary, based on current events and changed resource concerns. 1 | Page Section II Natural Resource Inventory Humans Musselshell and Golden Valley counties are located in Central Montana (see map), and have an area of 3,047 square miles. The counties share boundaries with the following seven counties: Petroleum and Fergus to the north; Wheatland to the west, Sweetgrass, Stillwater, and Yellowstone to the south; and Rosebud to the east.
