The Bear Claw Ranch will capture your soul and release your spirit into the wilds of this authentic Rocky Mountain Horse Ranch.

The Bear Claw features one of the finest 72 acres of land I have seen in the West. With incredible views, extreme privacy, DOUBLE creek frontage, and incredible additional building sites this property packs the features and benefits. The 2349 Square foot log home was built in 2002 and has 2 Bedrooms and 2 Baths. Its located off the grid and has the latest photo voltaic solar system (with a propane fired Generac backup generator), radiant in-floor heating, gas fireplace, attached 2 car garage, large redwood deck and gorgeous hardwood kitchen floors and log work throughout the home. Its one of the few horse properties with a barn in the county and would have wonderful potential for boarding horses for the locals. Since the property is bordered on three sides by national forest, you will certainly enjoy endless miles of horseback riding, hiking and of course hunting. The area is known for large herds of Elk, Mule Deer and Big Horn Sheep (Game Management Unit 39.) You will probably even have a shot at some of the black bears that call the area home. The creeks are of course home to feisty brook trout and provide an all around attraction to wildlife in the area. As you come out the driveway, youll be greeted by paved Highway 103 which is also known as the road to Mt. Evans and offers quick access to a world of back country recreation. With only a 6 mile drive to Echo Lake State Park(an absolutely fabulous fishery) you are sure to find some of Colorados best kept secrets (the kind only locals know about!) The land is in the process of being subdivided into 3 parcels (13 acres, 16 acres and the home on 44 acres) and will be offered individually or as whole. All parcels will feature creek frontage and the top 13 acres to north offers incredible views and plenty of flat ground for improvements. Please call for pricing.
