The Captain Lode - 10.33 Acres of Untamed Mining History! Saddle up for a wild ride back in time! Nestled deep in the rugged frontier in historic Silver Cliff, Colorado, The Captain Lode is a genuine 10.33-acre patented mining claim, wrapped in BLM land on 3 sides and laced with a gutsy two-track Forest Service road that dares the brave and beckons the bold. Not for city slickers - this is the real deal. Snowshoe in during winter months, just like the hardy souls of yesteryear! The road itself runs through the property, offering access few can claim. Years back, when crews were sealing an old mine shaft, a wild lynx emerged from an air shaft - a silent witness to the mysteries this land holds. Towering Ponderosa Pines and Pinon trees whisper stories of silver strikes and campfires past. There's ample firewood, crisp mountain air, and under the Westcliffe Dark Skies, the Milky Way stretches overhead like a cosmic trail. Stake your claim in history - build your off-grid cabin, explore the veins of adventure, and let the spirit of the Wild West stir your soul. This is more than land. It's legacy. Taylor Sheridan, eat your heart out!
