Description

This exceptional 500-acre offering combines adjoining mountain properties just off Powell Mesa Road in Western Colorado — a rare chance to own a significant tract with water, BLM access, and world-class hunting. Comprised of three parcels (171, 80, 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...This exceptional 500-acre offering combines adjoining mountain properties just off Powell Mesa Road in Western Colorado — a rare chance to own a significant tract with water, BLM access, and world-class hunting. Comprised of three parcels (171, 80, 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 onto the southern portion, 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 is now a ready-to-build site: the owner has recently brought power in from the south off Powell Mesa Road, across the canal, and up to the building site, and a domestic water well is already in place (with additional well capacity on the southern acreage). What was once off-grid is now served, making development straightforward. The owner has also just completed a substantial, professionally managed forest mitigation program across the property — on average thinning 12 of every 15 trees and leaving three standing. The result is meaningful and lasting: reduced wildfire risk and defensible space, improved access for the fire marshal and emergency response, lower and more attainable insurance costs, and enhanced wildlife habitat, as the thinned areas have been reseeded with natural grasses that provide forage drawing and holding deer and elk. A portion of the 171-acre parcel is protected by a conservation easement, preserving open space and habitat in perpetuity, while the main usable area — including the building site — remains unencumbered and ideal for building, recreation, 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 tract 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 a developed internal road system throughout. The northern half of the 249-acre tract is protected by conservation easement, while approximately 120 acres of that parcel, along with the 80-acre tract, remain unrestricted. The entire 500 acres lies within 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 odds of success on private ground across multiple seasons. The current owner works with a local outfitter and consistently harvests quality mule deer and elk, with later seasons especially productive. 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, recently improved infrastructure, and unmatched privacy, it is perfectly suited for a 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.
