Tucked into the rugged canyons of southern Colorado’s Christopher Ranch, this expansive mountain parcel is a rare find for those seeking total privacy, natural beauty, and full self-sufficiency. Located at the end of Horse Thief Gulch Road behind a gated ranch entrance, this property offers a turnkey off-grid setup and stunning views of the Sangre de Cristo Range.

A newly cut driveway leads to a cleared primary build site with a brand-new water well, solar power system, and septic system already in place. Two 2,500-gallon cisterns (one to be buried) provide ample water storage, and a new pressure tank and well pit will be installed this summer. A large 2019 Imagine Grand Design camper—driven only from the dealership to the property—offers shelter and comfort, further solidifying the turnkey setup for your immediate use and enjoyment.

Outbuildings and infrastructure include a new 10x21 storage shed, two 8.5x20 shipping containers, and a wide array of extras: a Kawasaki Mule, Case 530 loader tractor, patio furniture, chainsaws, tools, grills, and a host of other equipment—all included with the sale.

The land itself is rich with ponderosa pine, oak brush, and multiple year-round springs that attract abundant wildlife. Elk, deer, turkey, bear, bobcat, and even mountain lion roam freely through this deep canyon retreat, located in a region known for prime big game hunting. The property lies within close reach of the Arkansas River (famous for rafting, gold medal fly fishing, and ziplining), as well as Eleven Mile and Spinney Reservoirs, with hundreds of thousands of acres of nearby public lands ready for limitless adventure.

An extensive ATV/UTV trail network crisscrosses the property, and the ruins of an old trapper’s cabin add a touch of frontier history. Multiple additional elevated ridgetop building sites offer breathtaking mountain views and even more privacy if desired.

Just 30 minutes to Cañon City, 20 minutes to Guffey, and 90 minutes to Breckenridge, this property combines rare seclusion with manageable access to town and full amenities. Whether you’re seeking a wilderness retreat, future homesite, hunting basecamp, or investment in Colorado mountain land, this fully outfitted property offers extraordinary value and potential.
