113.70Acres
Just west of Steamboat Springs, Black Cat at 480 is 113 acres bordering BLM and Colorado State Land Board acreage. Due to the remoteness, attractive topography, open meadows and large ranches to the north & west, this private setting attracts a remarkable number of big game elk and mule deer. A 15 gpm well and stock tank only adds to the big game population. The property with a backdrop of sandstone cliffs, offers an ideal setting for a residence with open meadow, aspen grove and mountain views. Due to the productive hay meadow, the ranch benefits from agricultural tax status. Currently acreage is subdivided into 3 parcels and being offered as one parcel in the 480 Subdivision.

This Week's Summit County Events
Early October in the Colorado mountains is a true in-between season: gold aspen stands linger in the valleys while the high peaks wake up with the first sugar-dustings of snow. Mornings start frosty and glass-calm on Dillon Reservoir; by afternoon you’ll often peel off a layer under bright, 60-something sun—until a surprise squall reminds you winter is close. Elk are still bugling at dawn, trails are quieter, and the last pockets of color glow along Blue River, Frisco and Dillon. Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper, and A-Basin test snow guns on crisp nights, towns swap summer patios for pumpkins and cider, and locals squeeze in one more bike ride or hike before the clocks change and skis come out for good. -

Late September in the Colorado mountains feels like a gentle hand on the dimmer switch—golden aspens still shimmer on sunny slopes, but edges of orange and rust creep in as nights turn crisp and frosty. Elk bugles echo across meadows at dawn, high peaks catch a fresh dusting of snow and afternoons arrive clear and bright before the light slips early behind the ridgelines. Trailheads are quieter after the leaf-peeper rush, marinas and patios wind down for the season, and woodsmoke starts to curl from chimneys in the valley towns. It’s a sweet, fleeting shoulder season—part celebration of fall color, part whisper that real winter is waiting just over the pass. -
This Week's Summit County Events
In the Colorado mountains, fall arrives like a slow-moving sunrise: first at the highest ridgelines, then spilling down into the valleys. Aspen groves shift from lime to brilliant gold, their coin-shaped leaves quaking in the breeze, while scrub oak and willows add russet and copper along creeks and hillsides. Crisp mornings and bluebird afternoons frame the show, and some days a light dusting of snow on the peaks makes the colors pop even more. The change rolls by elevation—late August and September up high, sliding into early October closer to town—so there’s always another hillside glowing just around the bend. On calm evenings, lakes and reservoirs mirror the color, doubling the spectacle and reminding you why leaf season is one of the most magical times to wander Colorado’s trails and byways.
