Whether you are interested in a family compound, a commercial endeavor, mining, or something else, this property with no zoning, no covenants, and no HOA could have exactly the incredible privacy and serenity that you're looking for. Made up of three separate parcels and surrounded on three sides by Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park and adjacent to thousands of acres of public land, this property has both historical significance and potential value due to it being a patented mining claim (Altamont Placer). With easy access from Highway 2, you are initially met with breathtaking cliffs that include a large cave and unique framed lookout over the Jefferson River. A roughed-in road winds through a narrow canyon to the back of the property and ascends to a large plateau that provides stunning views of the property and surrounding area. With Bozeman less than an hour away, you can enjoy access to amenities, entertainment, and the airport while taking advantage of the remoteness of this versatile property. ## Location - **Address:** MT Highway 2, Cardwell, MT 59721 - **County:** Jefferson - **Coordinates:** 45.830717, -111.898454 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=45.830717,-111.898454 ## Virtual Tour & Media - **Video Tour:** https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q9rht5WUcAjW1lZcMxYPhZb4pl6fgQoe/view?usp=sharing ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Alicia Rutz · **License:** RBS-38934 - **Brokerage:** Small Dog Realty - **Broker Phone:** (406) 220-2013 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/MT-Highway-2_Cardwell_MT_59721_M99396-36320?f=listhub&s=GARMT&m=412217&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f2845688027r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4076192520r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f134322720r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4117006098r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3165479714r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3993632106r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3935720725r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4007228395r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f139544486r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3294862623r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f270160161r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1950951530r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f2778298098r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f926806125r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f2996346944r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4279532384r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1476686730r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4280984436r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f2836364539r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3513411464r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1731183377r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4193745629r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1066033203r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3699302066r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4170633154r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f865732053r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1212721139r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f136097744r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f3807768320r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 30](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f448185709r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 31](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1903094226r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 32](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1084953831r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 33](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4199869851r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 34](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f2243305226r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 35](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f1853064669r.jpg) ![MT Highway 2 - Photo 36](http://lh.rdcpix.com/a5f4461fc370c8f48999447e628edf5al-f4091936226r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 412217 | **Updated:** 2026-10-20 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Big Sky Country MLS.
