This land is nature's call away from the general bustle of city life.

1 / 26

Recreating and working on this land is as healthy a form of exercise as you can get.

Be content not to move but gaze and bask in heightened senses.

Deep in the rolling meadows of Wilson Mesa lies a spectacular 65-acre parcel of land.

Flowers, meadows, forest, mountains and wildlife abound.

Ptarmigan is embellished with a sun streaming landscape, wind moving through the forest and sometimes magnificent storms with nearly everything shining from base to summit.

Enjoy little meadow wildflowers naturally perfuming the crisp alpine air.

Camp out among the grasses, woods and mountains enveloping this special place.

Walk in any direction and taste the freedom of the mountains.

Rising from the ponds to the trees, mountains and beyond, Ptarmigan is the epitome of Telluride country living.

Whirling and flowing in rhythm from one meander to the next, this property offers senior water rights channeled through up to three irrigation ditches.

Ptarmigan Ranch offers an array of nature's spectacles to behold with family and friends.

Head for the hills when your heart calls for it.

Property Description
Come see this incredible mountain land filled with rolling, irrigated meadow, green forest, serene ponds and bordering Big Bear Creek. Adjacent National Forest and classic hiking trails offer an endless array of recreational pursuits. Abundant water rights allow various opportunities to create a water feature with lush horse pasture. Marvel at the stars and the Milky Way at night with some of the darkest skies in America. Walk in any direction and taste the quiet freedom of the surrounding mountains. Go ahead and attempt to match anything remotely close to these amazing 65-acres and what they provide for the price. Just 20 minutes to the razzle dazzle of Telluride.
