The old CUT bunker in Emigrant is apparently on the market. I remember when these guys were in the news after ATF raided the place. It’s a time capsule to 70’s/80/s survivalism.
Two Earth Sheltered (Bunker) Homes on +/-7 acres in the beautiful Paradise Valley of SW MT. Within 30 miles of Yellowstone Park, public hotsprings, hospitals and airfields. In an area of limitless outdoor beauty and recreation, with world-class flyfishing, hunting, and limitless public forest access. These privately spaced underground reinforced concrete structures were designed and built as earth-berm shelters for multiple people. Each on the grid but with its own backup power, HVAC system, fresh well water and permitted septic system. Both homes are designed for comfort and long-term living. Either or both could have a custom home built with discreet entrances into these hidden shelter systems. A local, experienced builder in the area has provided a sample picture showing a building option. First earth home shelter is +/-2,500 sf, with 3+BR & 2 BA. Tile counters & stainless sinks. All appliances are included. Additional underground storage areas. The second shelter is +/-6000 sf. Designed to accommodate many people. Over 300 feet long underground, suite. 11 toilets, 7 showers, 15 sinks. 2 cook stoves/ovens, washers/dryers
Whats interesting is that you might be inclined to think that this is quite a setup and there can’t be too many like it. Mmmm, you might be surprised. There are some very motivated and very resourceful organizations and families out in this region. There are some very serious bunkers out there, out of the public eye.
If you buy this old CUT facility, please invite me.
You would spend at least three times the purchase price and several years updating this property. It would sure be nice when you’re done.
Any idea how much they are asking for it?
1.5 mil
The fatalist in me can’t help but notice that the nearest missile silo is only about 100 miles away from there, around Harlowton. Of course, the prevailing winds are in their favor. $1.5 million is a lot to buy an additional five miles to what I already have.
TIL Havre, MT burned down in 1904. The citizens moved into their basements and built tunnels between homes and businesses, until an entire city flourished underground, including a bordello, opium den, and ice cream shop. It was opened for tours in 1999.

I’m leery of a property like that advertised publicly; I’m sure there are lots of people who will put it on a list for many reasons.
I recently saw a listing that not only said the house had a secret room, but also showed pictures of where it was in the house – I expect those pictures to permanently compromise the usefulness of those features.
