Mining Claims In The Highland Mountains Of Southwest MT
Soap Gulch Road Melrose, MT 59743
Description
Surrounded by public lands on the south end of the Highland Mountains is this cluster of 8 mining claims. The property offers commanding views of numerous ranges and access to hundreds of miles of trails and roads spiderwebbing the surrounding public lands. If riding horses, UTVs, hunting, or exploring the outdoors is something you enjoy, this property may be a perfect fit. Access is off Soap Gulch Road south of Butte, near the small town of Melrose. Travel into the property includes several miles of unimproved BLM roads. Make no mistake; these parcels should be considered seasonal, with some of the BLM roads being closed to motor vehicles from 31 December to 15 May each year for elk calving season. The BLM office offers what they call “travel variances” to access private lands during periods of the elk calving season on a yearly, as needed, basis. Buyers and/or Buyer’s agents are encouraged to contact the Butte BLM office for specifics. The claims are in hunting district 340, offering general hunting opportunities for deer and elk. Additionally, this tract is located within 10 miles of the famed Big Hole River. Take your street legal UTV from your parcel to one of the most famous trout fisheries in all of Montana or to hunt big game or grouse in the fall.
