| A nicer pastoral scene you'll never see. "The
famous Big Hole River winds through a valley that is noted for
abundant hay, fine cattle and horses, great hunting and fishing,
beautiful scenery and friendly people." With the beautiful
Beaverhead Mountain peaks of the Bitterroot Range in the background,
the Big Hole Valley is home to quintessential ranches where
ranching is done as it was 100 years ago. This can be attested
to by the use of traditional beaverslide stackers for putting
up hay as seen below. There are many unique features to the
ranches of the Big Hole Valley including private rodeo grounds
and private herds of buffalo and elk. |
