TOWN OF SHERIDAN: Sheridan sits on the banks of the Ruby River, in the heart of the Ruby River Valley.

As the heart of the Valley, Sheridan offers easy access to them all.

MADISON COUNTY: Down in Southwest Montana, sharing a tiny portion of its southern border with Idaho is Madison County. This mountainous part of Montana is wedged between Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, and its residents maintain their local traditions that are inspired by the natural landscape, like fishing, ranching, and all things outdoors.
The county seat is Virginia City, an interesting place split between the historic and the contemporary. Half of the town contains a vibrant, current-day population, while the other half is an abandoned mining town, preserved as a slice of history and a window into the lives of settlers from the mid-1800s.
While Virginia City is probably the countys largest touristic draw, the nearby town of Ennis is a delightful stop for passers-through, and is host to many annual events. Though it doesnt immediately border Yellowstone National Park, Madison County, and more specifically Ennis, can make a great base from which to explore the park.

A century and a half ago, these hills crawled with prospectors lured by rich gold strikes.

The geology of Montana had a history of volcanic activity which is largely responsible for the wide variety of interesting rocks and minerals to be found here.

MADISON VALLEY
The Madison Valley where our claims are located, is an area rooted in farming and ranching with blue ribbon rivers, majestic mountain ranges, abundant wildlife, and small towns with rural values.
Lewis and Clark crossed this scenic valley of majestic mountain ranges and the fabled Madison River in 1805, but not until 1864, shortly after gold was first discovered in the valley, did Madison County become part of Montana Territory.
Today, rural and community values keep ranching as the main way of life in the Madison Valley. Through conservation, the Madison Valley has sustained productive agricultural land, healthy grasslands, and abundant wildlife.
In addition to its old west charm, the Madison Valley has arguably the most superb fly-fishing waters in all the world and the Madison River may be our most glorious. Meriwether Lewis named the river in 1805 after James Madison, who was the US Secretary of State at the time. Starting in Yellowstone National Park, the river is 183 miles of perfectly moving riffles that are teaming with trout.
Ennis is the base camp of the Madison Valley, a colorful town filled with fly anglers and ranchers,

Fishing
Ruby Valley in Madison County Montana, is in the heart of the best fly-fishing in the lower 48. Famous blue-ribbon trout streams, the Beaverhead, Big Hole, and Ruby Rivers have their confluence near the town of Twin Bridges, where they become the Jefferson River. Two of the top fly-rod makers in the country call Twin Bridges home, as do many highly qualified fishing outfitters/guides.
Hiking, Horseback Trails & Camping
Surrounded by 7 mountain ranges Tobacco Roots, Ruby Range, Gravelly Range, Green Horn, Snowcrest, Madison Range, and the Blacktail the greater Ruby Valley has access to a full variety of backcountry experiences. Whether you are looking for an easy afternoon hike and a picnic along a lake, or whether you want to spend your vacation or summer camping, hiking, horseback riding, and exploring in the heart of the Rockies, you can base your adventure in one of our friendly small towns, camp in one of the several established campgrounds.
MADISON COUNTY: Down in Southwest Montana, sharing a tiny portion of its southern border with Idaho is Madison County. This mountainous part of Montana is wedged between Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, and its residents maintain their local traditions that are inspired by the natural landscape, like fishing, ranching, and all things outdoors.
The county seat is Virginia City, an interesting place split between the historic and the contemporary. Half of the town contains a vibrant, current-day population, while the other half is an abandoned mining town, preserved as a slice of history and a window into the lives of settlers from the mid-1800s.
While Virginia City is probably the countys largest touristic draw, the nearby town of Ennis is a delightful stop for passers-through, and is host to many annual events. Though it doesnt immediately border Yellowstone National Park, Madison County, and more specifically Ennis, can make a great base from which to explore the park.
SOUTHWEST MONTANA ROCKHOUNDING
Rockhounding is more than just a hobby; it is a lifestyle.
There's a reason Montana is known as the Treasure State and that Southwest Montana where our claims are located is especially rich for gold and precious gems.
Even today, you can tap into the euphoria of making a find in Montana.
A century and a half ago, these hills crawled with prospectors lured by rich gold strikes.
Aquamarine, sapphires, garnets, amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz scepters, jaspers, topaz, and even diamnonds are also to be found in this part of Montana.
Because of such an availability of gems to be found, there are many Mineral and Gem Clubs throughout the state.
The geology of Montana had a history of volcanic activity which is largely responsible for the wide variety of interesting rocks and minerals to be found here.
MADISON COUNTY
Madison County has some of the worlds best fly-fishing and endless other outdoor activities.
Close enough to Yellowstone National Park to visit, but far enough to be away from the crowds, this county has something for everybody during all seasons
throughout the year.
Amazing mountain views, spectacular trout fishing, and Cowboy Culture are just a few reasons to visit Madison Valley.
During the summer months, there are endless options for outdoor activities like fishing, hiking, biking, and kayaking.
The Big Sky Ski resort is an hour and half SE with all the winter activities.
Nearby Willow Creek Reservoir is a fishing access site that also has camping.
Fishing and boating may be enjoyed on the lake with a boat launch provided.
MADISON VALLEY
The Madison Valley where our claims are located, is an area rooted in farming and ranching with blue ribbon rivers, majestic mountain ranges, abundant wildlife, and small towns with rural values.
Lewis and Clark crossed this scenic valley of majestic mountain ranges and the fabled Madison River in 1805, but not until 1864, shortly after gold was first discovered in the valley, did Madison County become part of Montana Territory.
Today, rural and community values keep ranching as the main way of life in the Madison Valley. Through conservation, the Madison Valley has sustained productive agricultural land, healthy grasslands, and abundant wildlife.
In addition to its old west charm, the Madison Valley has arguably the most superb fly-fishing waters in all the world and the Madison River may be our most glorious. Meriwether Lewis named the river in 1805 after James Madison, who was the US Secretary of State at the time. Starting in Yellowstone National Park, the river is 183 miles of perfectly moving riffles that are teaming with trout.
Ennis is the base camp of the Madison Valley, a colorful town filled with fly anglers and ranchers,
Ennis sits on the banks of the Madison River and is surrounded by 3 mountain ranges.

TOWN OF SHERIDAN: Sheridan sits on the banks of the Ruby River, in the heart of the Ruby River Valley. Seven mountain ranges surround the Ruby River Valley: the Tobacco Root, the Highlands, the McCartney, the Pioneer, the Ruby, the Gravely, and the Snowcrest Mountains. As the heart of the Valley, Sheridan offers easy access to them all. Enjoy all of the hiking, hunting, camping, fishing, and backpacking that these majestic mountains have to offer while you stay in Sheridan. Although access to the Ruby River (especially around Sheridan) is limited, persevering anglers will be rewarded with prime fishing.

MADISON COUNTY: Down in Southwest Montana, sharing a tiny portion of its southern border with Idaho is Madison County. This mountainous part of Montana is wedged between Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, and its residents maintain their local traditions that are inspired by the natural landscape, like fishing, ranching, and all things outdoors.
The county seat is Virginia City, an interesting place split between the historic and the contemporary. Half of the town contains a vibrant, current-day population, while the other half is an abandoned mining town, preserved as a slice of history and a window into the lives of settlers from the mid-1800s.
While Virginia City is probably the countys largest touristic draw, the nearby town of Ennis is a delightful stop for passers-through, and is host to many annual events. Though it doesnt immediately border Yellowstone National Park, Madison County, and more specifically Ennis, can make a great base from which to explore the park.
SOUTHWEST MONTANA ROCKHOUNDING
Rockhounding is more than just a hobby; it is a lifestyle.

Even today, you can tap into the euphoria of making a find in Montana.
A century and a half ago, these hills crawled with prospectors lured by rich gold strikes.
Aquamarine, sapphires, garnets, amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz scepters, jaspers, topaz, and even diamnonds are also to be found in this part of Montana.
Because of such an availability of gems to be found, there are many Mineral and Gem Clubs throughout the state.
The geology of Montana had a history of volcanic activity which is largely responsible for the wide variety of interesting rocks and minerals to be found here.

MADISON VALLEY
The Madison Valley where our claims are located, is an area rooted in farming and ranching with blue ribbon rivers, majestic mountain ranges, abundant wildlife, and small towns with rural values.
Lewis and Clark crossed this scenic valley of majestic mountain ranges and the fabled Madison River in 1805, but not until 1864, shortly after gold was first discovered in the valley, did Madison County become part of Montana Territory.
Today, rural and community values keep ranching as the main way of life in the Madison Valley. Through conservation, the Madison Valley has sustained productive agricultural land, healthy grasslands, and abundant wildlife.
In addition to its old west charm, the Madison Valley has arguably the most superb fly-fishing waters in all the world and the Madison River may be our most glorious. Meriwether Lewis named the river in 1805 after James Madison, who was the US Secretary of State at the time. Starting in Yellowstone National Park, the river is 183 miles of perfectly moving riffles that are teaming with trout.
Ennis is the base camp of the Madison Valley, a colorful town filled with fly anglers and ranchers,

The area has it all, and owning this fantastic property will put every bit of it right at the back door of the cabin in the mountains you always wanted to build. Youll want to order a copy of the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest Central map so you can plan your days and weeks of hiking, fishing, hunting, biking, and ATVing. The Montana mountain wildflowers here are phenomenal too. Theres so much to see and enjoy. The views are breathtaking, and the setting is one youll have to see and experience to believe.

Or for now, just pull your camper in or put up your tent and start enjoying this amazing setting right away. You can fish for cutthroat and brook trout right in the river on your very own property then go up and down the river onto all the National Forest lands and keep right on fishing. The river pours right out of numerous high mountain lakes that are chock full of trout. Lakes like Brannan Lake, Sailor Lake, Lake Louise, Lost Cabin Lake, Globe Lake and more are all here to be fished and enjoyed. These are high mountain lakes that are pristine and picturesque with the mountain peaks jutting up right from their shores.

Moose, elk, and mule deer call the property home, and the high mountain peaks hold mountain goats and even more wildlife. You can hunt the mountain slopes or just hike and take pictures and enjoy the wildlife both below and above tree line. The spruce, fir, and pine forests here provide cover and shade for your property, the streams, rivers, and lakes and the wildlife who live here. Being up at the higher elevations where the property sits, its cooler here than down in the valley bottoms in the summer too. And the cool splashing waters of the river and the shade of the trees all around you will provide even more comfort from those hot summer days. This is strictly an off the grid recreational property for summer and fall use as its way back in the mountains on a mountain road and gets too much snow for year-round living. Its certainly possible to snowmobile in during the winter and spring months to visit your property and the cabin you build for Christmas or New Years or a few weeks or weekends in between. Itll be that happy place you go for peace and solitude, and you wont want to leave once you get there.
Where can you find a property like this with South Boulder River frontage bordering the National Forest with a leveled cabin site in the forest and such amazing fishing opportunities, hunting and mountains right outside your legacy property?
