Description
This is a fantastic opportunity to own a secluded parcel in the old Picketwire Ranch area, just minutes from Trinidad! With road access along the eastern edge, this property offers incredible flexibility to build, hunt, or create the perfect off-grid retreat. The land features a mix of heavy pine and oak brush, meadows, ridges, and a seasonal pond and arroyo, providing multiple options for building, recreation, and exploring. Flat ridges offer beautiful building sites, while the open meadows are ideal for a getaway cabin or recreational use.
Situated in Colorado GMU #85, this property is perfect for hunting enthusiasts. Over-the-counter elk tags are available, and deer tags can be obtained through the draw system, making it an ideal location for those looking to enjoy the abundant wildlife. Nearby, you’ll find the vibrant city of Trinidad, as well as the Purgatoire River, Trinidad Lake, and access to tens of thousands of acres of public lands and National Forest, perfect for outdoor adventures.
While no utilities are close by, this parcel is perfect for an off-grid lifestyle. Southern Colorado is known for excellent solar energy potential, and many local residents haul water or have it delivered. If you're considering drilling a well, the property qualifies for a residential well permit application, with nearby depths ranging from 260 to 300 feet.
Very few full time residents in the area, creating a great getaway with peace and quiet.
