East Bridger Preserve

East Bridger Preserve is a truly one-of-a-kind property located just 45± minutes from Bozeman, Montana. Nestled in the foothills along the eastern slope of the Bridger Mountains, just northwest of Sedan, these 80± deeded acres offer a striking variety of terrain and vegetation. Upon entering, the south-facing meadows of grass and sage give way to dense ridges blanketed in Douglas fir. From the higher ground, the South Fork of 16 Mile Creek comes into view, framed by stands of quaking aspen and willow. Panoramic vistas stretch across the Bridger Mountains to the north and south, with the Crazy Mountains anchoring the eastern horizon, a constantly shifting landscape that is as visually compelling as it is ecologically rich, offering wildlife abundant cover, travel corridors, and reliable access to food and water.

The fertile soils and numerous natural springs create an exceptional setting for gardens, crops, and livestock. Along its southern and western boundaries, East Bridger Refuge adjoins Gallatin National Forest, opening the door to thousands of acres of public land. The surrounding neighbors are a mix of established ranching families and thoughtful newer landowners, all of whom share a deep respect for the land and one another, cultivating a rare culture of stewardship and goodwill.

With vast stretches of both private and public land in every direction, the property's 12 springs serve as vital water sources for elk, deer, black bear, and moose as they move through the refuge. Potential build sites abound across the acreage, each offering sweeping views in all directions. A comfortable two-bedroom modular home, complete with outbuildings and corrals, has served as the current owners' hunting camp for more than a decade and stands ready to welcome the next chapter of this exceptional property.
