PROPERTY DESCRIPTION These 123+/- irrigated acres are located approximately 6 miles South of Twin Bridges at the corner of Novich Lane and Redfield Lane about 1 mile off of Hwy 41 S. This productive farm ground has irrigation water rights originating from the Big Hole River plus two springs which serve as year round stock water. The land is irrigated by 5 wheel lines which cover approximately 100 acres and the remainder are subirrigated. The land has historically been used as a hay base and spring and fall pasture. The live water is invaluable for winter stock water and there are also two wells which can be used for stock in two different pastures which are cross fenced. The Boken Ranch has been in the same ownership for more than 50 years with a history of excellent production and high weaning weights on calves. The entire acreage is perimeter fenced and cross fenced for rotation of livestock. There are 7 separately fenced meadows and 5 wheel lines which are served by a 50 hp pump. The land is fronted on two sides by a county road. LOOKING SOUTH OVER SPRING IN ONE PASTURE
