The most expensive ranch deal in Montana history has closed, local real estate companies say.
The Climbing Arrow Ranch, spanning approximately 80,000 acres in four southwest Montana counties, was sold to an undisclosed American family, two Bozeman-based real estate companies announced on Tuesday.
Five distinct units of land in Madison, Meagher, Gallatin and Broadwater counties comprise the ranch. Many consider it to be one of the most historically-significant land and cattle empires left in the Rocky Mountain West, according to Swan Land Company.
The family who sold it — the Anderson family — ran commercial cattle and hay operations on it for over 60 years. Their land featured tipi rings and cave petroglyphs from the Crow and Blackfeet Tribes and tunnels from a historic railroad route.
A portion of the movie “A River Runs Through it” was filmed on the ranch.
The ranch offer came with around 2,000 Black Angus cattle and access to the Madison River, Sixteenmile Creek and prime elk habitat.
The offer also came with feedlots, barns, corrals, working shops and homes for the owners, employees and guests, Swan Land Company wrote in a news release.
Agents listed the ranch for $136.25 million this April. Agents did not disclose the agreed upon price, the final terms or who bought the property.

“It’s the highest-price ranch listing ever to sell in the state of Montana, to date,” {Mike Swan, the Swan Land Company listing agent who represented the Anderson family in the deal} said.
