Conservation Opportunity: High ecological value and prime location make this an ideal candidate for a future conservation easement for buyers seeking land preservation. Q: Where is this property located and what public land does it access?
A: The property is located at 5176 Lindbergh Lake Rd in Condon, MT (Swan Valley). It shares a long western border directly with U.S. Forest Service land within the Flathead National Forest, featuring a short, walk-down trail that leads straight to the public access shoreline of Lindbergh Lake.
