Stockett, MT: High Camp Tree Work

Stockett is a hamlet of about 160 people in Cascade County, Montana, 16.4 road miles and about 33 minutes southeast of Great Falls at the end of the coal-camp road, near 3,800 feet. It was named for Cottonwood Coal Company manager Lewis Stockett, and the mines closed once diesel locomotives and gas furnaces took the coal market.

That height brings the first wet snow of fall and the last of spring, and a heavy September snow on leafed-out boxelder and Siberian elm breaks limbs across the camp. The yards also carry chokecherry, green ash and blue spruce, and the caragana and Russian olive shelterbelts above town are going ragged.

Stump Grinding

Stumps ground below grade so the lawn comes back. Old cottonwood and boxelder roots run wide here, so we check for sprinkler lines before we grind. See the full details, including typical pricing →

What Stockett Can Expect

Thirty-Three Minutes to the End of the Road

The far end of our coal-camp run, still with no trip charge. Stockett estimates ride along with Centerville and Sand Coulee work.

Wet Snow on Leafed-Out Trees

Early and late snow lands on trees still in leaf. We take down broken limbs and hangers, reduce crowns without topping, and name the trees that will not survive another one.

Ranch Shelterbelts Going Ragged

The caragana and Russian olive rows above Stockett are old and thin. Ramon clears the dead stretch with the skid steer, and the live row stays as a windbreak.

No Town Office, County Rules

Stockett is unincorporated, so your tree is your call. A brush pile needs a Cascade County burn permit and a word with the rural fire district; most customers have us chip and haul.

City boulevard, burning and town-office rules: see our permits page.
