Imagine owning a secluded sanctuary where every corner of the landscape invites you to connect with the raw beauty of the San Juan Mountains. Red Mountain Ranch is just that, a 480± deeded acre one of a kind property, offering an opportunity to raw natural resources, recreational possibilities, and unmatched privacy and access. The property features two 7±-acre lakes, over 3 miles of improved trout streams, and Red Mountain Creek, which flows through the entire length of the property. Red Mountain Creek, along with the lakes and streams, creates a private fishery that is completely under your management, offering exclusive fishing opportunities in its pristine waters. Abundant with brown trout, cutthroat trout, and rainbow trout, this fishery ensures a consistent and rewarding fishing experience while allowing owners to maintain the health and sustainability of its aquatic ecosystem. With no public access or pressure from outside anglers, the property provides a rare opportunity to preserve and enjoy a thriving, unspoiled fishery. Elevations ranging from 9,300 to 9,700 feet offer spectacular views of Rhoda’s Arch, the surrounding landscapes, and nearby 12,000+ foot peaks, including Piedra Peak, located just four miles away. The land itself is a diverse mix of aspens, spruce, and willows, further contributing to the property’s raw beauty and ecological richness. The estate includes multiple well-appointed structures, including an Engelmann Spruce Log Cabin boasting 4,193± square feet of living space with extraordinary high ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling three-story fireplace, and expansive windows showcasing the properties breathtaking views. Additional structures on the ranch include a large barn with a caretaker’s apartment above, a second log cabin, a fully equipped workshop, and a dedicated yoga/exercise room near the main house. Red Mountain Ranch is located in Game Management Unit 76, a highly sought-after area for big game hunting that is home to trophy-class wildlife, including 330 to 380 class bull elk and moose. The property is enrolled in the Landowner Preference Program and historically receives one bull elk tag, three cow elk tags, and one application for mule deer. This unit is truly considered one of the best Game Management Units in the region for hunting moose and elk, making it a prime location for hunters. Recreational opportunities abound at Red Mountain Ranch, including hunting, fishing, swimming, hiking, rock climbing, and ATV exploration. The land’s remote nature, year-round accessibility, and raw, unspoiled beauty make it feel like stepping back into the 1800s. It is a place where the land has remained largely untouched and protected from the outside world, providing a private sanctuary for those who call it home.
