High Point Ranch

If you hear echoing from montane meadows and quaking aspens the distant sound of 20th century music, you may have just stumbled upon the spectacular High Point Ranch! This 300 +/- acre parcel encompasses the Uncompahgre Plateau’s second highest point (locally known as Flat Top) and is just one Julie Andrews away from being straight out of The Sound of Music! Protruding from the southern horizon lies nearly the entire San Juan Mountain Range-from Mount Uncompahgre in the east to solitary Lone Cone in the west, the very essence of western Colorado unfolds at eye level. Utah’s La Sal and Abajo Mountains are visible 70 miles away, the Grand Mesa and West Elks shimmer along the northern horizon, and the entire Cimmaron ridge, from Castle Rock to Wetterhorn, provides a foreground to every sunrise. With electric service on site and recreational hubs, Ridgway and Telluride, out your backdoor this alpine get-away is one from which you can climb every mountain and ford every stream.
