Beaverhead covers approximately 345,000 acres in Southwest Montana. It stretches along a 90-mile road from Dillon to the Idaho border then east to Yellowstone Park. It is home to nearly 7,000 cow/calf pairs but also bald eagle, elk, and beaver. The Beaverhead uses a rest-rotation grazing plan developed in the 1970s that promotes biodiversity and healthier grazing. As a result, the ranch can support 8 percent more cattle while using 25 percent less supplemental feed. The ranch earned a Preservation Excellence Award from the Montana Preservation Alliance for preserving the historic character of its buildings. Interior walls that had to be replaced were kept, including one with signatures of cowboys dating back to the 1880s. In 2002, the ranch became the first ranch certified by the Wildlife Habitat Council for outstanding natural resource management initiatives, including re-establishing habitat for the Westslope cutthroat trout, increasing the number of elk and deer, and the diversity of plants. It received recertification in 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2014. Other recognition: The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association’s Environmental Stewardship Award for finding new ways of protecting environmental resources while increasing ranching profitability; the first-ever National Private Lands Fish and Wildlife Stewardship Award; and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Regional Administrator’s Award for "important...environmental accomplishments."
