Nestled high up in the trees is 6.32 acres of raw, untouched land. This parcel sits just below Trinchera Peak of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Teddy’s Peak is to the immediate north and  Cuatro Peak to the south. The big 14ers, Mt, Blanca and Mt. Lindsey tower to the north west. You are surrounded by mountain tops with the mountain forestry for privacy and protection. The trees are stripped of their vibrant fall colors and prepare for white snow cover! There are some pictures included that show the lush greenery of the spring and summer. The wildlife will take refuge in these trees and be the only ones you have to share your piece of Colorado with.

It is so peaceful, quiet, and serene in these hills. You will feel the stress melt away as you climb to your mountain oasis.
