Church River of No Return Wilderness areas, literally a 4 million± acre plus playground right out your back door of some of the most wild and beautiful National Forest land to explore and enjoy. Every manage drainage out of the Bitterroots has a trail leading back to these areas.
Your view to the East has an unbroken view of the Sapphire Mountains and the CB Ranch a 23,000± acre Ranch. Elk, deer, bear, moose, turkey and all sorts of additional wild life call this ranch and surrounding area home.
Just five minutes from the gate of the ranch flows the Bitterroot River, providing some of the finest angling for wild trout in the lower 48 states.
