These Montana State lands, between Fox Farm Road and the Missouri River, are directly adjacent to the City of Great Falls. They are in danger of being developed in the near future. Development, probably a combination of leased and fee sale, is the preferred option by the State of Montana since this property is “state school trust lands.” It is a state law that requires that the maximum income possible be derived to benefit the state school system. This is the last piece of public land available for preservation in the vicinity of Fox Farm and Flood Roads.
