    About this House

    What's unique:Natural drawsWooded hillsidesHeavily wooded mountain terrainPrivate mountain setting
    Located in Picketwire Ranch near Trinidad, Colorado, this approximately 147-acre property offers heavily wooded mountain terrain, an existing outbuilding that has historically been used as a hunting cabin, newly improved road access, and direct access to more than 2,600 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ground. With deer, elk, bear, turkey, and other wildlife found throughout the surrounding area, the property provides an appealing opportunity for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts looking for substantial acreage with access to additional public land. One of the property's most significant features is its direct connection to more than 2,600 acres of BLM land near the existing outbuilding. This adjoining public ground has no reported designated public access points, creating an attractive opportunity for a landowner seeking to explore and hunt a much larger area beyond the private acreage. The BLM connection greatly expands the recreational possibilities of the property, allowing hunters to cover additional terrain without having to drive to a separate public access location. Public land use remains subject to applicable BLM regulations, and buyers should independently verify boundaries and legal access.
    The property itself consists of approximately 147 acres of varied mountain terrain with heavy pinyon and pine coverage, wooded hillsides, natural draws, and several areas that provide views across the surrounding countryside. The dense tree coverage offers screening and habitat for wildlife, while the changes in elevation create different vantage points and opportunities to explore the property. A couple of wet-weather ponds provide seasonal water features that may attract wildlife when conditions allow. These ponds are dependent on precipitation and seasonal runoff, and their water levels will vary throughout the year.
    Deer and elk are found throughout this part of Las Animas County, along with black bear, turkey, and other native wildlife. The combination of substantial tree coverage, seasonal water sources, varied terrain, and adjoining BLM acreage gives hunters several different types of habitat to explore. Whether spending time glassing distant hillsides, watching game trails through the timber, or accessing the larger surrounding public land, the property offers opportunities for hunting and wildlife observation throughout the year. Actual wildlife presence and hunting success will vary by season, and all hunting is subject to applicable licensing and regulations.
    Near the upper portion of the property sits an outbuilding measuring just over 1,050 square feet that has historically been used as a hunting cabin. This is a dry outbuilding with no utilities connected, and it is not being represented as a permitted residence or habitable dwelling. The structure has traditionally served as a base for hunting trips and recreational use, providing an existing place to gather, organize equipment, and spend time on the property. Its location near the adjoining BLM boundary is particularly appealing, offering convenient access to the surrounding public acreage.
    The outbuilding also enjoys outstanding views of the surrounding southern Colorado landscape. From its deck, Fisher's Peak rises prominently above Trinidad, while the Spanish Peaks are visible across the western horizon. These mountain views add another dimension to the property, whether enjoying a quiet morning before heading into the field or spending an evening watching the changing light across the distant ridgelines. The combination of elevation, tree coverage, and open mountain views gives this setting much of its character.
    Access to the property has recently been improved, with roadwork completed along the route from Picketwire Crossing all the way to the existing outbuilding. This improved route provides a more established approach through the mountainous terrain and makes reaching the upper portion of the property more convenient. A new access easement from Picketwire Crossing is to be created as part of the property configuration, with its final location and legal description to be established through the survey and associated documentation.
    Although the property offers a private mountain setting, it remains within reach of Trinidad and Interstate 25, providing access to groceries, fuel, restaurants, lodging, and other services. Trinidad also serves as a gateway to southern Colorado's extensive outdoor recreation opportunities, including Trinidad Lake State Park, the Highway of Legends region, and the mountains surrounding the Spanish Peaks.
    For hunters interested in additional opportunities beyond the adjoining BLM ground, the broader region contains tens of thousands of acres of public land spread among San Isabel National Forest, Spanish Peaks Wilderness, Spanish Peaks State Wildlife Area, and other public holdings. These areas provide opportunities for hunting, hiking, wildlife observation, and exploring different elevations and habitats throughout southern Colorado. Trinidad Lake offers fishing, boating, and other water-based recreation, while the Arkansas River provides additional fishing and outdoor opportunities farther north.
    This approximately 147-acre offering is well suited for a buyer interested in recreational acreage, hunting headquarters, or a private mountain retreat with an existing outbuilding and access to extensive surrounding public lands. The combination of heavily wooded terrain, seasonal ponds, improved access, mountain views, and adjoining BLM acreage provides a strong foundation for enjoying the property as it sits while evaluating any future improvements.
    Important Property Information: The property and all existing improvements are being sold strictly as-is. The existing outbuilding has historically been used as a hunting cabin but is a dry structure with no utilities connected and is not being represented as a permitted residence or habitable dwelling. Boundary lines are approximate. No owner financing is available.
