The power is all underground, no power lines blocking your views. The hunting inside the ranch is nothing short of incredible as the ranch is a favorite spot for the Mule deer and Elk to winter because of the mild climate, and elevation with an unlimited food source and lots of water for the animals and then because the ranch backs to National Forest and the hunting continues but now with rifle if you choose and Colorado offers OTC Elks tags on 2nd and 3rd rifle. This 175 acre property is literally the only piece in the entire community that gets land owner Mule Deer tags and the Deer and Elk are just everywhere.
