A remote ranch next door to the Lee Metcalf Wilderness south of Big Sky is being offered for sale to a Bozeman-based nonprofit, but the $2.9 million purchase price has to be raised by April 30.
âThis is such a passion project,â said Jen Beaston, executive director of Crosscut Mountain Sports Center. âIâve been working 15 hours a day, but itâs worth it.â
Beaston was approached in mid-February by one of the family members who own the Trapper Cabin Ranch, a 640-acre spread at the end of the Taylor Fork Road. The family compound includes three log homes, a managerâs cabin, barn and an off-grid power plant. The land had been offered to a deep-pocketed investor when it was listed for $15 million.
