Tree Removal on the Sun River in Vaughn, MT

Vaughn is a community of about 740 people in Cascade County, Montana, 15.3 road miles and about 20 minutes west of Great Falls, where US-89 cuts through town and the Sun River runs just south. Robert Vaughn homesteaded here in 1869 after giving up gold mining and sold to Captain Thomas Couch in 1890; Couch laid out the town in 1910.

Cottonwood, willow and boxelder crowd the flood ground south of town and lean toward the water. The higher lots carry green ash, Siberian elm and blue spruce that take the full west wind down the valley, and the February 2020 windstorm laid cottonwood limbs across this stretch.

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 →

Why a Great Falls Crew Comes to Vaughn

What Vaughn Can Expect

Twenty Minutes West at the Junction

Our Sun River run starts here, so Vaughn estimates pair with Sun River, Fort Shaw and Simms. A storm call gets a same-day or next-day answer.

Flood-Ground Cottonwoods

Cottonwoods on the Sun River flats grow big in wet ground and lean riverward. We take a leaner down in pieces from the dry side, with the chip truck parked on gravel.

West Wind Down the Valley

Nothing between the mountains and Vaughn slows a chinook. Before spring we check the ash and elms for cracked leaders and lifted soil, and tell you what is still sound.

Unincorporated, County Burn Permits

Vaughn has no town office, so a tree on your own lot is your decision. Burning brush takes a Cascade County permit, or we chip and haul it.

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