Prime Hunting And Recreation Tract In Trophy Unit 711
TBD Secret Canyon, Lot#WP001 Dove Creek, CO 81324
Description
This is a rare opportunity to own 248.4 acres of high-quality Colorado hunting land located in Trophy Unit 711. Situated in a conservation easement with the Montezuma Land Conservancy, the property includes a designated building envelope of 1.5 acres, offering the chance to build your dream. The terrain is a mix of rolling hills, Gambel Oak, Piñon Pine, Juniper, and a few mature Ponderosa Pines. A newly dug pond supports local wildlife, and there's an abundance of fresh elk, deer, turkey, and bear sign across the property, with visible rubs throughout the timber.
The land borders 15,000+ acres of BLM and connects directly to the San Juan National Forest, providing direct access to tens of thousands of additional acres for hunting and recreation. The property is enrolled in the Landowner Preference Program, increasing the owner's chances of drawing a coveted mule deer tag in this trophy unit. Over-the-counter elk tags are available for the 2nd and 3rd rifle seasons.
The parcel offers year-round, county-maintained road access and is located just 15 minutes from Dove Creek and 45 minutes from Cortez. Panoramic views include the La Plata Mountains, Sleeping Ute Mountain, the Abajos, and the La Sal Range.
This property checks every box for the serious outdoorsman, investor, or land steward looking for a combination of access, wildlife, privacy, and long-term value.
