Own a piece of history! This is a 20.66 Acre piece of undeveloped land also known as the Lilly/Orphan Boy mining claim, located outside of Elliston, Montana up Telegraph Creek. It is surrounded on three sides by the Helena National Forest. The property is not a state lease, but has been grandfathered and is a deeded property. The original headframe of the Orphan Boy mine still stands on the property with remnants of the old bunkhouse and kitchen building. It recently underwent a reclamation to remove the old mine tailings and re-contour the land to its original appearance. Telegraph Creek runs through the middle of the land and attracts a diverse array of wildlife to include Deer and Elk. It offers multiple sites to place an RV, or even build a cabin. There is currently not a well or electrical power on the property. It is heavily wooded and has not been logged, or cleared. It is an excellent property for recreation. Access with a car is seasonal due to the snowfall, but with a snowmobile or a snow cat it could be accessed year around.
