Proposed Big Snowy conservation easement provides elk access
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks proposes a 99-year conservation easement for a 3,652-acre section of the Hannah Ranch, aimed at enhancing elk management and providing 400 public hunter days annually. Valued at $3.56 million, the easement would offer limited public access, addressing habitat preservation and recreational opportunities while managing local hunting pressures. Public comments are open until July 28.
