The parcels are currently zoned to allow one residential home on each parcel, offering a variety of possibilities for future ownership.

Buyers are encouraged to independently verify all access, road conditions, boundaries, buildability, utilities, and intended use. Heavily wooded with abundant natural beauty, these properties offer a peaceful mountain setting and the potential for exceptional privacy. Access is believed to be from Harvest Moon Trail; however, neither the seller nor the listing broker has traversed the full road. Buyers should perform their own due diligence regarding access, year-round accessibility, and vehicle requirements. Whether you're looking to invest in mountain land, create a private getaway, or own a unique piece of Colorado's historic mining country, this rare offering combines nearly 13 acres across three patented mining claims in a beautiful alpine setting.
