Strada Traughber

Rarely does a property of this caliber come to market in the heart of Swan Valley, one of the most breathtaking and authentically wild corridors in the American West. Perched above the valley floor, this stunning 120-acre parcel commands sweeping panoramic views of three iconic mountain ranges: the Big Hole Range to the north, the Caribou Mountains to the south, and the dramatic Palisades Range to the east, a 360° backdrop that simply must be seen to be fully appreciated. Thoughtfully set up for development, the property already has the essentials in place: a well, septic system, and a road cut to the potential building site, giving you a meaningful head start whether your vision is a private family compound, a legacy hunting retreat, or a long-term investment.

The elevated terrain not only maximizes the views but delivers a sense of privacy and seclusion that is increasingly rare in this sought-after valley. A Hunter’s & Angler’s Paradise. Each winter, the property serves as prime habitat for resident elk herds that migrate through the valley, making this a true sportsman’s property with a natural draw that most buyers spend a lifetime searching for. Combined with direct access to world-class fly fishing on the South Fork of the Snake River, home to the largest river population of Yellowstone cutthroat trout in existence, this is a property that delivers on every level for the serious outdoor enthusiast.

Beyond the property line, adventure is limitless. The surrounding Caribou-Targhee National Forest opens the door to hundreds of miles of backcountry hunting, hiking, and horseback riding. Come winter, proximity to Grand Targhee and Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, along with snowmobiling and snowshoeing through the national forest, rounds out a four-season lifestyle that is hard to match anywhere in the region. Swan Valley is a rare gem, quiet, authentic, and still largely undiscovered compared to its famous neighbors, yet conveniently positioned just one hour from Idaho Falls and a short scenic drive to Jackson Hole, Wyoming via either Teton Pass or the Snake River Canyon. Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone are both within easy reach, placing you squarely inside the greater Yellowstone ecosystem. Whether you’re building your forever retreat, establishing a legacy hunting property, or simply securing a piece of one of the last truly special corners of the Rocky Mountain West, this property delivers the ideal blend of natural beauty, infrastructure, and opportunity.
