Ive never been to Dayton, but I love Sheridan. Its damn expensive, especially with property. Id like to get at least 20 acres if it all works out. I dont think MT state taxes are too bad, but definitely another expense I would need to add in.
I drive 6-7 hours a day for my current job, so I dont mind being on the road. Im also being paid for those hours, so its a little easier. My family is always number 1 and I want my kids to be safe with a descent school. Sounds like driving through the Rez everyday will be a nightmare though.
I think you're right on the money. GPS has it at 1 hr 17 mins. Thats a long haul everyday and even longer on bad roads. Takes a lot of time away from family time. It gives me something to think about.
Im greatful for all of the information ive received, puts a lot into perspective. Thank you.
There is a small school in ft smith they could go to, but i dont imagine it being a great time for them either way. Sucks, its a great paying job, and now I am seeing why.
Ive never taken the road. I didnt know it was gravel. Yeah, that sounds like a disaster. Seems like Ranchester is the best option, but thats still a hell of a drive. They might have govt employee housing in ft smith, but thay would feel like living on an island.
I was looking it up. It's less miles from bridger, but faster from ranchester. Only by about 5 or 10 minutes, though. I appreciate the insight. Ive only driven through the Crow once.
I appreciate the information. I use to work up by the reservation between Missoula and Polson back in the early 2000's. It wasnt a great place either.
I think a drive either way would be more beneficial to my family than living next to the rez.
If I get the job, it would be at the Bighorn Nation park in Ft Smith. Its a long drive from any of the areas. Its a highly competitive position that im excited to possibly get.
I could possibly be moving back to Montana this year if a job comes through. I havent hunted or lived in Montana since 2008. The job would bring me to the southern part of the state. Im looking at a few towns that Ive only driven through, was wondering if anyone on here lived in those areas and...
It looks like a tranq gun and I believe you can see a dart sticking out of the hind quarter on the cat when it runs by. Probably a biologist taking measurments/tracking collar.
