Comprised of three parcels (171 acres, 80 acres, and 249 acres, the property is surrounded on three sides by BLM land, offering unmatched privacy, access to thousands of acres of public lands, and an ideal setting for a custom home, hunting retreat, or off-grid legacy estate. A steel bridge crossing Fire Mountain Canal leads you onto the southern portion of the property, where a short drive climbs to a plateau building site with panoramic views of Mt. Lamborn, Lands End, the Raggeds, and the West Elk Mountains — one of the most scenic vistas in the region. This area includes two domestic water wells, and DMEA power will be brought to the property, making development straightforward. The land is covered in mature pinion and juniper forest, with portions selectively hydro-axed for fire mitigation, improving forest health and usability. The western half of the 171-acre parcel is protected by a conservation easement, preserving its open space and habitat in perpetuity. The remaining acreage is unrestricted and ideal for recreation, building, or sustainable land use. The 80 acre northeast parcel is tucked into a rugged valley with Jay Creek running through it, perfect for hiking, hunting, and backcountry access. To the north, an additional 249 acres provides even more opportunity. This land is fully off-grid, with access via a private easement through a neighboring parcel. It includes a natural spring on the southern end that could be developed into a water source, and has a developed internal road system throughout for easy access to key areas. The northern half of the 249-acre tract is protected by conservation easement, while approximately 120 acres of that parcel — along with the full 80-acre northern tract, remain unrestricted. The entire 500 acres is located in Colorado Game Management Unit 52, a highly regarded big game unit known for producing trophy mule deer and elk. The property’s water, habitat diversity, and BLM borders make it a natural refuge from public hunting pressure, increasing your chances of success on private ground during multiple game seasons. This 500-acre mountain holding is a rare convergence of everything that makes Colorado land special. With multiple parcels offering both conservation and development potential, varied topography, mature forests, and unmatched privacy, this property is perfectly suited for your custom mountain home, high-country hunting base, or long-term conservation investment. Whether you're looking to build, explore, or simply hold a rare piece of Western Colorado, this land delivers the scale, beauty, and opportunity to create a truly lasting legacy.
