In the heart of Colorado, tucked in a high mountain valley and surrounded by snow-capped mountains, is Leadville, a city rich in history, abundant in outdoor recreation, and home to down-to-earth residents ready to welcome you with a smile.

Leadville’s fame is often attributed to its elevation. At 10,200 feet, it’s the highest incorporated city in North America. Leadville’s notoriety dates to the mid-19th century when gold was discovered in California Gulch, however Leadville’s wealth extends beyond mining and into its wilderness where the San Isabel National Forest offers thousands of acres of public land.

Residents of this small city are avid outdoor recreationists who take their play seriously. With an abundant number of trails and four-wheel-drive roads, any summer day is a perfect day for hikingmountain bikingfour wheeling, and camping. Nearby lakes offer excellent fishing and boating in breathtaking alpine settings and the Arkansas River provides the country’s best whitewater rafting. Let’s not forget to mention that Colorado’s two tallest mountains—Mt. Elbert and Mt. Massive—grace Leadville’s skyline, making for spectacular 360° views.

When flakes begin to fall, residents trade out bikes and four wheelers for skis and snowmobiles. With nine months of snow, Leadville has perfected the art of winter. Within ten miles of downtown, dozens of trails are groomed for cross-country skiingsnowshoeing, and snowmobiling. For some of some of the softest and deepest natural snow in Colorado, downhill skiers head to Ski Cooper, one of Colorado’s best-kept secrets.

Hunting

The property is located in the northeast corner of Game Management Unit 48 and across the street from Unit 49. In and around Leadville, hunters have easy access to where pronghorn, moose, elk, deer, and small game, like dusky grouse, snowshoe hares, and ptarmigans, are found. The hunting units around Leadville are 80% public lands, which means there’s plenty of space for everyone.
