The N Bar Ranch in central Montana is one of several properties purchased in the past two years by Dan and Farris Wilks of Texas. The N Bar is well known for its variety of wildlife and its cattle operation.
The Wilks brothers are said to be interested in managing their lands for wildlife, cattle and farming.
The N Bar Ranch includes the fertile Flatwillow Creek valley. Just above the creek, the Wilkses are building a 6,000-foot runway for their jet.
