Land

Bordering Dinosaur National Monument on three sides and BLM on the fourth, this secluded property presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of land almost entirely encompassed by protected public lands.  The Wild Mountain
inholding features diverse terrain that rises from a moderately level area near the entrance before climbing into the relatively steep foothills of Wild Mountain. While much of the property is characterized by steeper topography, the gentle terrain near the entrance presents an excellent location for a future campsite or potential cabin, allowing one to enjoy the privacy and serenity this unique setting has to offer. The land is predominantly covered in mature pinyon-junipers interspersed with sagebrush and native grasses, creating quality habitat for wildlife while providing natural seclusion throughout the property. Expansive views of Wild Mountain, Offield Mountain, Dinosaur National Monument, and the surrounding mountain ranges create an impressive backdrop in nearly every direction.  As one travels higher across the property, the elevated vantage points further showcase the rugged beauty that defines this remote corner of Colorado.  One of the property’s defining characteristics is its setting as a true private inholding.  Surrounded entirely by public lands, the property offers a level of privacy and exclusivity that is increasingly difficult to find.  With no neighboring private parcels, beyond its boundaries, the Wild Mountain Inholding provides direct access to an expansive landscape that has remained largely unchanged for generations.
 

Recreation

For outdoor enthusiasts, the Wild Mountain Inholding places countless recreational opportunities right outside the property boundaries. Existing trails around the property weave toward Dinosaur National Monument, leading  to breathtaking overlooks of Canyon of Ladore and Hell’s Half Mile, where the renowned Green River winds through towering canyon walls hundreds of feet below. The surrounding landscape is nothing short of spectacular,  offering dramatic cliffs, colorful canyon formations, expansive mesas, and rugged mountain scenery that make this region one of the most remarkable destinations.  Located within Colorado’s highly sought-after GMU 1, the property lies in a unit long recognized for producing trophy-quality bull elk and mature mule deer, while also supporting healthy populations of pronghorn antelope.  Beyond hunting, the surrounding public lands offer endless opportunities for hiking, horseback riding, ATV/UTV riding, and exploring miles of remote backcountry.  Nearby BLM lands feature numerous springs and scattered ponds that attract wildlife and livestock alike, while the adjacent Diamond Breaks Wilderness Study Area showcases a striking mix of dramatic canyons, timbered foothills, rolling sagebrush flats, and unique geological formations. Whether exploring by foot or simply enjoying the solitude, the Wild Mountain Inholding serves as an ideal basecamp for experiencing this extraordinary landscape.
