  Spectacular Scenery

Peak within the ranch offers a 360-degree panoramic view
Eastern pasture vantage point shows an 85-mile wide panorama

The magnificent Sangre de Cristos rise 35 miles away from the eastern pasture of the ranch. From this pasture you can also look to the north and see an 85-mile wide panorama—over 50 miles of the Continental Divide’s 13,000- and 14,000-foot peaks.

The view north from the middle of Aspen Creek Ranch provides the panorama pictured above—over 50 miles of the snowcapped Continental Divide. Threemile Mountain frames the right side of this picture, with the forest of ponderosa, bristlecones and firs on the left eventually sweeping up the mountain to meet the Pike National Forest boundary. The western boundary of the ranch lies beyond the left edge of the picture. This boundary lies within six hundred feet of a 10,000-foot peak on the National Forest. It is approximately 1/3 mile from where the picture above was taken. The northern boundary of the ranch is straight ahead and well over ˝ mile away. You can hike or horseback ride on the ranch or over the tens of thousands of Pike Forest acres.
  The 9,815-foot peak pictured left, which lies completely within the ranch, has spectacular 360-degree views of the National Forest, South Park, the Continental Divide, 10,722-foot Dick’s Peak (just to the south of the Ranch on the National Forest), Thirtynine Mile Mountain and Bear Mountain. The heavily forested northern slope holds deep snow until late spring when the whole ranch awakens from winter dormancy into green meadows. Summer brings beautiful wildflowers beneath its broad, high-country skies.
