0 Hidden Wilderness Rd Idaho Springs, CO 80452

Ranging in altitude from roughly 9300' to just over 10,000' this remote recreational escape just outside the metro area is a densely forested haven of lodgepole pine and aspen trees interspersed with beautiful rock outcroppings and occasional meadows. Seclusion and privacy are a consistent theme as only several private landholders within the enclave surrounded by national forest have access beyond the gates. The property is an exceptional getaway offering private access far beyond the sizable 116.55 acres to vast public lands sparsely utilized by the general public. Elk/Deer Hunting, Hiking, Exploring, Mountain Biking & Horseback Riding are options beyond just enjoying the quiet essence of the land. A sheltered landscape opens to spectacular views for winter activities such as snowshoeing and x-country skiing. The 4WD access road is its own adventure traversing the forest on the way to the property as it rises from Idaho Springs. The property abuts to Arapahoe National Forest to the northwest & south and has direct private access to the forest as well as the Beaver Brook Watershed Open Space below; providing exceptional recreational access to a vast area of public lands. A 20' X 34' Off-Grid, A-Frame Cabin originally upon the property has been repaired and weather proofed. The interior is yet unfinished. With a peak height of 20 feet, an upper loft floor provides additional interior space. 20-gauge new metal roof and front deck in place, along with new windows and doors. Siding is slated to be installed. The cabin has been outfitted with a portable composting camp toilet and fresh water hauled to fill an elevated gravity water tank outside. Solar panels on the sloped roof provide DC power stored in 2 batteries with +-200 amp/hours of storage each for a total 400 amp/hours and inverted to provide both A/C and D/C power. The cabin is a fabulous weatherproof shelter ready for finishing touches to be fully functional. Time to GET AWAY!
