I'm having a well drilled at our offgrid property in Montana. Quoted at $60/foot and expect water at about 150 feet. Add in a pump, pipe, wire, pressure tank etc and I expect to pay about $15k. But keep in mind, the only cost you'll have going fwd is electricity. Pump/ pressure tank should last 10+ yrs. Your mileage may vary.

Property taxes are super cheap now because we dont have any services yet ($75/yr on 20 acres) I'll answer more questions if you gottem.

Septic vs sewer: septic is self- reliant and completely on your property. Might have a small pump or not depending on your lot. Call in a truck every 5 yrs or so at maybe $300 to pump your tank out. Sewer is a monthly fee to city, forever and ever. Maybe $40/mo?

Logging is needed as long as its done the right way. Clear cutting is rarely the right way. More thinning is needed in much of the federal lands in the west, or prescribed burning. If not, forest fires will continue to get worse.

A lot of states have abortion and/or cannabis on the ballot as a motivation.

The vast majority of the GOP did virtually nothing to stop the steal, and eventually supported MAGA. You are giving them way too much credit.

Yea, but cheese is really good though.

They collected almost twice the necessary signatures needed for the bill in Montana. And abortion is already protected via the right to privacy in the state constitution. The R governor and state legislators keep trying to fight it though. Let's hope the "stay out of other people's business" people vote yes.

My buddy's stick, found years ago as part of a root ball. Bark removed, and cleaned up.
