This prime 30-acre Colorado hunting property offers a remarkably turnkey setup, with extensive habitat improvements, a newly constructed seasonal wildlife pond, established trails, premium elevated hunting blinds, proven wildlife activity, and direct access to thousands of acres of public land already in place for the serious hunter. Located in Ouray County within Colorado GMU 62, nearly all of the difficult groundwork has already been completed. The newly constructed seasonal pond is designed to capture and hold a substantial amount of water when filled, providing an important water source for wildlife, while recently completed native mountain grass seeding further enhances the habitat. Strategic tree mastication and fire mitigation have opened key areas and shooting lanes for improved visibility, wildlife movement, healthier habitat, and hunting while preserving the rugged piñon and juniper character of the land. An established internal trail system provides quieter, easier access throughout the acreage. Two premium, brand-new, 2-man Banks Outdoor hunting blinds sit on 12-foot risers overlooking key wildlife areas, providing excellent visibility and protection from Colorado’s mountain weather. Year-round wildlife activity is well documented—all wildlife images shown in this listing were taken directly from the property. The property directly borders well over 14,000 connected acres of BLM/public land along its south and east boundaries, opening an extraordinary amount of additional hunting and backcountry recreation directly from your land. Locked entry gates on the south and east sides provide additional security and privacy, while the western boundary is fenced. Despite the secluded setting, Government Springs Road is only 1.5 miles away via an existing BLM road. GMU 62 offers hunting opportunities for elk, mule deer, bear, and mountain lion, with OTC bull elk tags available for second and third rifle seasons for residents and non-residents, along with OTC archery bull elk tags for Colorado residents. Beyond hunting, the land is relatively flat and buildable, surrounded by rugged Western Colorado scenery with views of Buckhorn Mountain, Courthouse Mountain, the Cimarron Mountains, and San Juan Mountains. Build an off-grid hunting cabin, establish a private Colorado basecamp, or preserve it as a place where family and friends can hunt, explore, and create traditions and memories for generations. For the discerning hunter who recognizes how difficult it is to find improved private hunting land with this combination of wildlife, infrastructure, scenery, and public-land access, this property deserves to be experienced firsthand.
