Silver Spurs Ranch, Filing 1, Parcel #252.5 acres bordering 240 acres of BLMIdeal, Colorado (south of Walsenburg) |
Parcel #2 is 52.5 acres of mountain delight (with a large piece of great horse pasture) accessed directly from Ideal Canyon Road, a year-round county-maintained road with power and phone available (most of Silver Spurs Ranch does not have land phone lines). The western property line borders 240 acres of BLM land (meaning public land that can only be accessed by property owners whose land directly abuts the boundary). While the views from most of this property are really great in all directions, at the mesa top (elevation 6,695 ft.) the 360° views are excellent. Almost half the property is good pasture with excellent grass. The mesa top is almost flat and covers more than 5 acres. A hard one on this property will be choosing your building site: excellent locations are all over the place. The photo to the left (taken in the pasture) is of (what we call) elk duds. In reality, there were elk duds, deer beans and wild turkey droppings all over this property. |

The valley/pasture crosses this property from east to west and continues into the BLM property beyond the west fence line. This is a pretty nice drainage with lots of seasonal water flow and excellent grass. In hiking the property we came across the area shown below. ![]() This gorgeous piece of paradise is priced at $99,900. |
