Power has been extended to a private, secluded building site nestled among the trees, offering stunning valley views and incredible morning sunrises. This is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise in Colorado Game Management Unit 85 with abundant wildlife including mule deer, elk, mountain lion, turkey, and more frequenting the area.
