Description

Deep in the heart of Bear Basin Ranch lies this hidden gem, a secluded forest mountain retreat. Nestled between beautiful rocky hills and with BLM land in close reach, adventure awaits the avid explorer! This property location boasts both privacy and endless inspiration.
This property parcel is for those who prefer life off the beaten path. Wander into this destination and you’ll be immediately welcomed by the crisp scent of pine trees, the cheerful choir of uninterrupted birdsong, and a treasure trove of views both near and far.
For those looking to make the trip, parking is available on the road and the best way to experience the land is to start by the large rock outcrop featuring the postcard worthy juniper. This overwhelmingly scenic area is apparent from the road. Just north of Juniper Rock is a gently sloping land with ideal western exposure for what most would want for a wonderful campsite or permanent building site for those who dream of something more. You’ll be hard pressed to find a 38-acre parcel with more varied offerings in topography or character-giving features.
All seasons promise something to behold; wildflowers bloom in explosive shows of color, wildlife revels in the unspoiled nature, water flows in a seasonal creek which transforms into a majestic glacier until spring arrives again. Aspen stands are sprinkled among verdant scrub oak and watchful old pine trees. Giant boulders erupt from the earth and ancient tree stumps rest in the most impressive, twisted postures, reminding all of the immense history of this special land.
Tucked away in the mountains of Silver Cliff Heights, this is a tranquil place of respite in a world full of hustle and bustle. Only 1.5 hrs. from Colorado Springs, an hour from Pueblo. As noted, parking is available on the road but always prepare for inclement conditions, so a 4x4 is recommended. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind property with limitless potential.
