Hinsdale County, Colorado
Carson Mines is a historic property located in the San Juan Mountain Range of Hinsdale County, Colorado. Positioned nearly 12,000 feet above sea level along the Continental Divide, the site spans approximately 305 non-contiguous acres of recreational mountain land made up of 32 historic mining claims.
Originally founded as a mining camp, the property features several remaining structures and artifacts known as Carson Camp. BRASS owns the property and is actively exploring future development and recreational uses, capitalizing on its direct access to the unspoiled wilderness of the Rio Grande National Forest.
The Continental Divide location provides extraordinary panoramic views, access to world-class backcountry skiing, hiking, hunting, and fishing opportunities. At nearly 12,000 feet, the property offers a truly rare combination of historical significance, natural beauty, and development optionality.
As Colorado's recreational real estate market continues to appreciate, driven by remote work trends, increased outdoor activity interest, and limited supply at altitude, Carson Mines represents a compelling long-term value proposition for patient, vision-driven investors.
