Basin, MT 59631

Consisting of four contiguous patented mining claims, the property is fully surrounded by U.S. Forest Service land, providing exceptional solitude and direct connection to extensive trail networks for ATVing and hunting/recreation opportunities. The property’s 24x12-foot cabin is positioned to overlook Three Brothers Mountain and the open meadows below, creating an advantageous vantage point for spotting game such as elk, moose, and deer. One of many springs was dug up and inspected in the past year to confirm a constant flow, and this water source could be developed for cabin use if desired. The property lies at the end of a challenging 45-minute drive (accessible by 4x4 truck until snow flies) via Forest Service roads—emphasizing its remote nature and the importance of planning ahead for extended stays. This is not a property for quick trips to town but for those seeking a true backcountry experience. Access to the property is secured through a Forest Service permit, which will be transferred to the buyer. There are large boulder fields on both ends that create an even more private situation. In the winter months, the Forest Service roads convert to groomed snowmobile trails, opening additional recreational opportunities for riding, winter camping, and backcountry exploration. The current owner has completed the time-consuming permitting, road construction, and logistics needed to bring a livable cabin into such a remote location—allowing the next owner to enjoy the benefits of an established site. Whether used for seasonal hunting, extended retreats, or as a private base for outdoor exploration, this property offers direct access to thousands of acres of contiguous public land without the interruption of neighboring private parcels. Its springs, wildlife habitat, and complete seclusion make it an increasingly rare find in Montana’s backcountry. The cabin is wired to accommodate a generator, with potential for solar and battery systems should the new owner wish to further enhance off-grid capability.
