The Bureau of Land Management is accepting written bids for the Big Hole West timber sale until Sept. 23, 2025. The sale includes nearly 4.2 million board feet of timber across 1,800 acres to thin dense Douglas-fir stands and reduce tree encroachment on grasslands near Wise River in Silver Bow County. These efforts will increase forest resiliency, improve wildlife habitat for sage grouse, big game, and other species, and benefit local communities.
