ONLINE ONLY LAND AUCTION 5,155.22 Acres - Dawson County, MT Bidding Opens: Friday, August 21, 2026 – 1:00 p.m. (MT) Bidding Closes: Tuesday, August 25, 2026 – 1:00 p.m. (MT) Auction Note: The Pleasant View Land Auction offers 5,155.22 +/- acres of contiguous farm and ranch ground six miles west of Glendive, MT. The Steffan family has spent the past few years building this operation into the productive farm and ranch it is today, and now it is offered to the next generation of producers. These 12 parcels give bidders the option to acquire individual parcels or assemble multiple parcels that can meet the goals of an investment or operation expansion. The land carries a balanced split: approximately 2,520 +/- acres of cropland and hayland, with the remaining 2,635 +/- acres in native and enhanced grazing. The cropland is carrying wheat, peas, and hay through the 2026 season; the grazing base is anchored by the Sand Creek tributary that draws through the heart of the property. Multiple wells, including solar wells, supplement the creek water across the grazing parcels, and direct county road access reaches virtually every parcel. The property reads as a single integrated unit. Cropland and hay ground sit on the flatter terrain; native grazing follows the rolling creek bottom valley along Sand Creek. Gates between the two open harvested fields for fall and winter grazing once the crop comes off, extending the feed base well past the growing season. Deer and antelope move across the property year-round, and the hunting holds up alongside the working ag base. Mineral Rights: 75% of surface mineral interests will transfer to the buyer at closing. The remaining 25% surface interest, including but not limited to sand, gravel, clay, and aggregate interests, along with 100% of subsurface mineral rights, will be reserved by the seller. Working Ranch Attributes The Pleasant View offering carries the basics of a balanced working operation. Native grass and hay land utilized as enhanced grazing supply forage through the summer; the cropland base produces small grains and peas alongside winter feed, supporting stocking rates that a grass-only operation cannot match. Multiple wells supplement Sand Creek and Clear Creek for livestock water, perimeter fencing is intact across the grazing parcels (with portions recently updated), and direct county road access reaches every tract. Bidders may acquire individual parcels at their own discretion or assemble multiple contiguous parcels into a single operation.
