The Hughes property is located in hunting districts 448 and 420 and borders 3.5 miles of the Judith River Wildlife Management Area and 4.5 miles of the Lewis and Clark National Forest. Hughes Mountain Ranch is home to a Rocky Mountain Elk, Mule Deer, Whitetail Deer, Antelope, & several species of game birds. An elk count conducted in 2006 by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks reported a total of 1200 head in these two districts. From Nature Trails to History Tales: We will supply coordinates, maps and wide open spaces - you will need to bring your spirit of adventure!
