Description

Located in eastern Las Animas County, Colorado, this 40.13± acre property in the Pinon Canyon Ranch subdivision features a combination of mesa terrain and open plains, with access from dirt roads off Highway 350. Situated near the Apishapa State Wildlife Area, Comanche National Grassland, and other public lands, the property offers potential for recreational camping, a small cabin, or an off-grid homesite in southeastern Colorado. With pronghorn, mule deer, elk, and predator hunting opportunities in the surrounding region, this acreage provides a base for enjoying the area's wide-open landscape and outdoor recreation.

The property is located in Colorado Game Management Unit 134. The land's mix of mesa-side terrain and flatter ground provides different options for enjoying the outdoors, establishing a camp, or evaluating potential building locations. The varied topography also gives the property a distinct southeastern Colorado character, with opportunities to experience the open landscape and surrounding natural environment.

For outdoor enthusiasts, one of the primary attractions of this 40.13± acre property is its location in a region known for big game and predator hunting. Colorado GMU 134 supports pronghorn, mule deer, and elk populations, with pronghorn being particularly prominent in the surrounding region. Coyotes and other predators are also pursued by hunters in southeastern Colorado, making the area appealing to those interested in a variety of hunting opportunities. The acreage may provide a place to establish a private base camp, prepare for hunting trips, store permitted outdoor equipment, or spend time exploring the surrounding countryside.

The property is located near several notable public-land destinations, including the Apishapa State Wildlife Area, Comanche National Grassland, and state trust lands in the broader region. These nearby recreational resources expand the range of outdoor activities available in the area, subject to each property's access rules and seasonal restrictions.

The Apishapa State Wildlife Area offers opportunities for hunting, fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing under applicable regulations. Comanche National Grassland is another regional destination for exploring southeastern Colorado's open country. Together, these nearby public-land resources make this location appealing to buyers who want a private parcel within reach of a broader outdoor recreation landscape. The property is also near the Piñon Canyon Maneuver Site, a military training area where certain recreational activities, including hunting and fishing, may be permitted during designated periods.

Access is provided by dirt roads connecting to Highway 350. A subdivision road crosses the southern portion of the property, which is an important consideration when evaluating the layout, access rights, potential building locations, and how different portions of the acreage may be used. The landscape features a mix of juniper trees, mountain cholla, sagebrush, and other native cacti and grasses that are characteristic of southeastern Colorado. These native plants contribute to the property's natural character and provide habitat and cover for wildlife moving through the area. The combination of mesa-side terrain, open plains, and native vegetation creates a diverse landscape for recreational use, camping, and exploring the surrounding countryside. Whether you're considering a hunting base camp, a small cabin, or a potential off-grid homesite, the property's native vegetation and varied terrain offer an authentic southeastern Colorado setting.

Water hauling is common in the surrounding area, and reported well depths in the region commonly fall in the range of approximately 500 to 700 feet. Electrical service is reported to be some distance away, so an off-grid setup may be the most practical starting point. The nearest suitable utility connection and the cost of extending service have not been verified for this specific parcel.

Whether the goal is a hunting base camp, a weekend camping property, a small recreational cabin, or a potential rural homesite, this 40.13± acre parcel offers an opportunity to establish a foothold in southeastern Colorado. Its varied terrain, access from Highway 350, proximity to public recreational lands, and location in a wildlife-rich region make it an appealing option for buyers seeking space, outdoor access, and a more self-sufficient approach to rural property ownership.

If you are looking for Las Animas County land for sale with hunting potential, camping opportunities, off-grid possibilities, and access to the wide-open landscapes of southeastern Colorado, this Pinon Canyon Ranch acreage deserves a closer look.
