CONSIDERATION TO AGRICULTURE

Current ownership of Chute Canyon Ranch has implemented a combination of pasture grazing and hay production on the irrigated lands and ample stock water. Typical production of the hay-only side is in the 3-4 ton-per-acre range. Investment has been made in some pivots with new seeding. All infrastructure is workable!

WILDLIFE & RECREATION

Secondary only to Agriculture, Beaverhead County is well known for its recreation, particularly elk hunting and fishing. The ranch is conveniently located within a short drive from the Red Rock, Beaverhead River, and countless other lakes and streams providing Blue-Ribbon Trout fishing.

The ranch is located in Hunting District 300, which is a general draw for residents. Every fall the elk seek the safety of the irrigated lands as the population of hunters increase on the public lands. Several elk in the 300+ class have been harvested on the ranch.
