1421 buckskin road

Escape the ordinary and claim your piece of Colorado's rich history right outside of the quaint town of ALMA! This exceptional 9.56-acre property was a part of the storied Red Cross Mining Claim and offers a unique combination of rugged adventure & peaceful seclusion. Bordered by Pike National Forest, the property provides direct access to nature's playground and makes this already large parcel feel even larger! Access to the Red Cross is along Buckskin Gulch, named for the first miner to strike gold, Buckskin Joe. While zoned for mining, the land is perfect for recreational use, whether you're prospecting for gold or simply seeking a quiet escape. Zoned 'mining' you can use the property for camping/recreating (within county guidelines) or create a breathtaking mountain retreat with potential panoramic views with a Special Use Permit from Park County. The property features a sunny meadow at the road that leads to a wooded, gentle incline, offering both privacy and a picturesque setting. It's a prime location for outdoor enthusiasts, with easy access to legendary spots like Kite Lake, the Windy Ridge Bristlecone Pine Scenic Area, and numerous 14ers and hiking trail giving you opportunities far beyond the already large acreage. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a slice of Colorado's heritage. Whether you're a prospector, adventurer, or dreaming of a secluded mountain getaway, this property is a true gem waiting to be discovered.
