Description

It's a feeling only some can relate to: the warmth of the sun caressing your face, the gentle breeze whisking through your hair, an outcry from an overhead hawk soaring high to catch a glimpse of his next meal, the clouds lazily floating by, the antelope quickly raising his head from grazing the native grasses to observe the passersby. For most, it becomes a dream to own land and maintain it as a homestead or acres to roam in search of the prized elk or deer to hunt. The rolling hills consisting of 320 acres have no covenants so let your dreams formulate into a reality. Drive and park your camper for some recreating. Build a hunting cabin. Build a dream home! Bring the horses or invest in raising some cattle. Draw a coveted tag for elk or seize the nearby Missouri River that offers up fishing, floating or water fun in the sun. Escape to the Bear Paw Mountains and fill up your days with memories of voyages through forests and campfires with smores. The adventure of the great outdoors can be yours! Local Area Located along the Hi-Line sits Chinook, Montana, a small, nostalgic community and home of the Sugarbeeters mascot. Chinook is the county seat of Blaine County and is located on Lodge Creek where it empties into the Milk River. Its name means "warm wind" as farmers and ranchers historically depended on these warm chinook winds as a means of survival. In the 1920s, the town held a massive sugarbeet factory which inspired the mascot. The Sugarbeeter mascot ranked #2 out of 100 for the strangest mascots according to Mr. Jay Leno! You'll find that the town is welcoming and warm with its tree-lined streets and well-kept downtown. It is also the eastern starting point for the Bears Paws Mountains Backcountry Drive. On this drive, you will journey past the Bearpaws Battlefield where the last major Native American battle in the United States took place. The Blaine County Museum holds many artifacts and history about the battle and the homestead era. Chinook is just 20 miles from Havre, a larger city on the Hi-Line. Area Attractions This area is part of the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument. It is comprised of 149 miles of the Upper Missouri River and flows from Fort Benton to the Charles M Russell National Wildlife Refuge. The Monument comprises 375,000 acres of public land. In over 200 years since Lewis and Clark once journeyed through, the land remains largely unchanged captivating a spectacular array of biological, geological, and historical objects of interest. Float, fish, hike, hunt, peacefully drive, find solitude, or enjoy a sense of exploration in a remote setting of natural beauty. Charles M Russell National Wildlife Refuge The CMR National Wildlife Refuge displays badlands, cottonwood river bottoms, forested coulees, and sprawling prairies. The Refuge provides over one million acres of public land for fishing, hiking, hunting, camping, bird-watching, and other outdoor activities. The area spans about 125 miles along the Missouri River, from the Fort Peck Dam west to the boundary with the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument. If you're looking to observe game in its natural habitat, this refuge shall reward. It is the second-largest refuge in the continental US. In September and October locals and tourists from all over gather to watch the bull elk bugle and battle for the cow's attention at Slippery Ann Wildlife Viewing Area. Miles of parked cars can be seen while people sit on lawn chairs and watch for hours the wild display the elk present. Herds of deer, red fox, and coyotes can also be observed. Bird watchers can delight in spying mountain bluebirds and black-capped chickadees. Osprey, spotted sandpipers, and white pelicans can be found along the coast of the reservoir. Bears Paws Mountains There is also a wide array of recreational activities ranging from skiing at the Bear Paws Ski area, hunting the Bear Paw Mountains for elk and deer, or fishing for trout in Beaver Creek.
