This secluded 35 acre parcel is located a straight shot from atop Wild Horse Mesa down the powerline road to state highway 159 which leads to Taos and the historic town of San Luis. Wild Horse Mesa is one of the most beautiful remote areas of Colorado. This parcel is off grid. The land qualifies for a domestic use well permit from the Colorado Division of Water Resources, but most residents rely on water delivered to a cistern and provided by the community well operated by the Little Norway Water Company. Accessed by a lightly travelled dirt road. This is the place for privacy. Wild horses and elk run free on the Mesa! The Wild Horse Mesa/Melby Ranch community lies at 8,000+ feet elevation. The parcel is about 20 minutes from San Luis, about 65 minutes to Taos, New Mexico. The Mesa spans about 20 square miles of spectacular vistas, both level and hilly with varied eco-regions including sagebrush and rabbitbrush (chamisa), pinon, juniper, grasses, and wildflowers. The stargazing is world class, and the views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains are breathtaking. Cell phone service is spotty in the area, internet is satellite.
