Serving Ulm, Montana
Ulm is the Missouri River town at I-15 exit 270 south of Great Falls, once William Ulm's cattle ranch, with First Peoples Buffalo Jump on the bluff to the northwest.
Local & Insured
Ulm is a community of about 720 people in Cascade County, Montana, 12.9 road miles and about 17 minutes south of Great Falls, where I-15 meets the Missouri. The ranch got a post office in 1883, a Montana Central Railway stop in 1887 and a bridge over the river in 1914.
First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park, a sandstone cliff a mile long and 30 to 50 feet high, sits about three and a half miles northwest and has been a National Historic Landmark since 2015. Cottonwood and willow fill the river flats, while green ash, blue spruce and Siberian elm on the newer acreages take the bench wind full on.

Why a Great Falls Crew Comes to Ulm
A straight interstate run that pairs with Cascade and Gibson Flats work. Estimates usually land within a couple of days, and a storm call gets a same-day look.
The river cottonwoods at Ulm are the biggest trees in this end of the county, and a wet spring lets them tip. We section a leaner down and park the chipper where the ground is solid.
Places climbing toward the buffalo jump take the wind straight off the bench. Before spring we check the ash and spruce for cracked leaders and clear hazard wood over the house.
Ulm has no town office and no boulevard rule, so a tree on your own lot is yours to remove. Burning a brush pile takes a Cascade County permit, or we chip and haul.
City boulevard, burning and town-office rules: see our permits page.
If a cottonwood on your Ulm river lot is leaning at the house or a spruce on the bench lost its top in the wind, call (406) 555-0119 or ask for a free written estimate.
