Ranging in altitude from roughly 9300' to just over 10,000' this remote recreational escape just outside the metro area is a densely forested haven of lodgepole pine and aspen trees interspersed with beautiful rock outcroppings. Seclusion and privacy are a consistent theme as only several private landholders within the enclave surrounded by national forest have access beyond the gates. The property is an exceptional getaway offering private access far beyond the 40 acres to vast public lands sparsely utilized by the general public. A small encampment exists towards the eastern border of the property consisting of a 12x16 Tough Shed style "cabin" with a wood stove and loft and a privy down the path. Elk/Deer Hunting, Hiking, Exploring, Mountain Biking & Horseback Riding are options beyond just enjoying the quiet essence of the land. The 4WD access road is its own adventure traversing the forest on the way to the property as it rises from Idaho Springs. The property has SW corner access to Arapahoe National Forest.
