Property Description

If you want to own remote, mountain property...this is your chance! These two groups of patented mining claims are at the top of Empire Gulch and were owned by George F. Campion, one of Leadville's original mining magnates. He and his brother co-owned the IBEX mine. Shepherd, Mrs. L. A. "Cemetary Has Unique Markers." Accessed July 20, 2022. (https://www.leadvilleherald.com/leadville_life/article_4433f542-d856-11e8-94dd-c3626a7e9edb.html).

Getting there is an adventure! The meandering route goes through the Leadville Mining District, State Wildlife Area, Aspen Groves and Pine Forests. The willows along the valley make a perfect environment for observing wildlife. Bring your four-wheel drive vehicle that is suitable for when the road narrows and the very rocky and rutted nature of the road. An ATV, UTV, or small SUV would be best. Once you get to the end of where motorized travel is allowed, it's about 1.5 miles on foot. Make sure that you take in the views behind you as you travel up the road. It's nothing but mountains, forest, grassy meadows, and wetlands for miles! If you'd like to own remote, large acreage with tremendous views...this is the property for you!

This property is subject to the recently adopted Backcountry Zoning (https://www.lakecountyco.com/community-planning-development/pages/backcountry-zoning) and please familiarize yourself with the Camping Resolution 17-07 on the Lake County Community Planning and Development site (https://www.lakecountyco.com/community-planning-development) to understand the extent you may camp on private property.

Owner feels that the property is being Assessed at a much higher value than market value. It might be worth the new owner's time to protest the tax values since they don't have legal access and must be walked to making them essentially unbuildable. The adjoining property is MS#10171 Gold Buckle Group and is included with the Whale Group. The taxes and acreage reflect the totals for both properties.
