Learn more about working lands in the Upper Clark Fork at Dry Cottonwood Creek Ranch

The Clark Fork Coalition purchased Dry Cottonwood Creek Ranch in 2005 with the help of two conservation partners.  The ranch supports 150 head of cattle, and includes a grazing lease on adjacent U.S. Forest Service land.  Located east of Interstate 90 near Galen, the ranch contains three miles of Clark Fork River frontage, and will undergo a transformation as the Superfund cleanup takes place on the mainstem Clark Fork over the next decade.  Dry Cottonwood Creek Ranch serves as a critical resource for residents, citizens, and students throughout the Clark Fork --  join us anytime for a tour, restoration workday, or field trip.
