Nestled between Ridgway, Placerville, and Telluride, Colorado, Lot 13
offers 40 stunning acres of horse-friendly, off-grid paradise in the heart of
the San Juan Mountains. Located just ¼ mile north of 62X Road off Highway 62,
this premier parcel provides easy seasonal access (typically mid-May through

world-class skiing, hiking, and festivals nearby. Featuring a large natural
pond, expansive meadows, and sweeping mountain views, this property is perfect
for horse lovers, outdoor adventurers, and those seeking a peaceful mountain
retreat with no HOA and no covenants—bring your RV, build a cabin or full-time

wells, solar power systems, and septic setups, and strong cell service ensures
modern connectivity. An established easement road runs along the eastern
boundary, making access convenient, and for the adventurous, year-round access
is possible via snowmobile, skis, or tracked ATV. Surrounded by 400+ acres of
legacy-owned land, this area is a hidden gem for recreation, solitude, and
wide-open Colorado skies. Additional adjoining 40-acre parcels (Lots 11, 12,
and 14) and a beautiful home on Lot 18 are also available, offering a rare
chance to own up to 200 contiguous acres in one of the most desirable mountain
regions of Colorado. Whether you’re riding horseback into the sunset, enjoying
the serenity of your private pond, or planning your dream homestead, Lot 13 is
a one-of-a-kind opportunity to live your Colorado dream.
