Forty secluded acres near the Kokopelli Trail by the Westwater Canyon of the Colorado River with rock formations and gorgeous views of the Colorado River Canyon and the Uncompahgre Plateau. Spring brings a carpet of globe mallow and primrose, and the massive rock outcropping offers shade in all seasons. Dark night skies, clean air, and the incredible peace of a remote desert setting create a unique sanctuary to escape from the bustle of town. Wildlife abounds in the incredibly quiet atmosphere of the acreage, and an established pronghorn herd roams the land. Above, you'll see golden and bald eagles, hawks and raven, and hear the melodious calls of songbird species rock wren and Western meadowlark. The Morrison rock formation holds treasures of fossils, dinosaur bones, and petrified wood. A strong Native American presence in the not too distant past is evidenced by arrowheads and rock tools found nearby. For recreation, enjoy the hiking opportunities, the Kokopelli bike trail, Mel's Loop motorcycle trail, and rafting and kayaking in nearby Westwater Canyon, a renowned stretch of rapids on the Colorado River. Or enjoy floating serene flat water downriver from the Canyon. No HOA, no CCRs to limit your vision of a desert getaway. Peaceful. Quiet. Undiscovered.
