Yankee Boy Basin Mining Claim Ouray Telluride

This is a dream Ouray County high mountain property,
located right on one of the best known Jeep trails in the San Juans.  It’s located just across the bridge that
crosses Sneffels Creek on the way up to Yankee Boy Basin.  From the bridge the property begins 0.4 of a
mile down the road, which is rough and rowdy and what you’d expect! 

What makes this mining claim stand out is
accessibility.  So many claims are
appealing, yet lack of legal access makes dependable long term access
questionable.  In this case you have a
Ouray County road going right through the property.  From roughly May 15 through November 15
you’ve got the ability to come and go using whatever vehicle works best for you
and the ones you love. 

Keep going up the road through Imogene Basin, which hangs
above the Famous Camp Bird Mine and cross over to the famous ski town of
Telluride using the old stage coach route. 
Elevation is 10,500 ft.  Yet the
mountains still tower above, and the parcel’s main core is relatively level,
with sections that head toward the NW and SE on either end.  The trees are healthy and a beautiful mix of
spruce, firs and pines. 

This is the fabled Caledonia Mining Claims, and mining
claims extend to the center of the earth! 
So even unique aspects such as the ability to go down or back into the
hillside gives interesting building and structural opportunities. 

Many would see this as a staging spot for outdoor
recreation-both relaxed and extreme. 
Bring your camping equipment-your RV-put up a yurt or wall tent or even
put up structures like a cabin or shop/storage building.  Picking your plan for enjoying your new land
in the San Juan Mountains is going to be fun!
