Meet Justin and Danielle Miller—owners of Big Sky Land Management and stewards of Montana’s natural beauty.

Big Machines for Big Sky

Meet Justin and Danielle Miller, owners of Big Sky Land Management. What began as a forestry service founded in 2005, has expanded to include environmental excavation and civil construction.


Located in the beautiful state of Montana, Justin, Danielle and the Big Sky Land Management team are no strangers to tough jobs and harsh conditions—snow, mud, high altitudes, hot summers and freezing winters. And, they need tough equipment to match.

Justin purchased his first Cat® machine in 2008, followed by a Cat 320E LRR Excavator in 2015. Today, Justin and Danielle have a diverse fleet of machines and attachments that help them tackle any project.

In addition to equipment, Big Sky Land Management gets personalized support from their Local Cat dealer, Western States, who is there to support their business every step of the way. “Our dealership plays a critical role in helping keep our equipment running at peak performance and reducing downtime. When our equipment isn’t running, we aren’t making money,” says Justin.

Cat CP56B Vibratory Soil Compactor

Cat Dozers

“We have Cat D6N and D6R Medium Dozers. Cat Dozers are by far my favorite. They are the most reliable and durable dozers available on the market. Nothing beats a Cat Dozer when you’re in the mountains and pushing dirt on variable terrain.”
