A Colorado Ranch with a Legendary Western Legacy The long-time home to Rodeo Hall of Fame and legendary cowboy Larry Mahan, this 493.6A± acre Colorado high-country ranch carries a direct connection to one of the most recognized figures in professional rodeo and the American West. A multiple-time World All-Around Champion and member of the ProRodeo Hall of Fame, Mahan was not only a champion cowboy, but also a horseman and rancher whose life remained closely tied to the Western way of life. Located near Guffey, Colorado, at approximately 8,500 feet, the ranch combines open mountain grasslands, mature timber, year-round water and outstanding views of Pikes Peak. The landscape is classic Colorado high country, with productive meadows transitioning into wooded areas and impressive stands of tall ponderosa pine. Pikes Peak dominates the eastern horizon and can be seen from throughout the ranch. Water is an important component of the property. A year-round creek runs through the ranch, complemented by two year-round ponds. These water resources, combined with the grasslands and timber, support livestock while providing excellent habitat for the ranch's abundant wildlife. Located in Colorado GMU 581, the ranch supports strong populations of elk and mule deer, along with wild turkey and other native wildlife. Elk are regularly found on and around the property, and the combination of timber, open grasslands and reliable water creates excellent elk habitat. The ranch offers quality elk and mule deer hunting and is eligible for Colorado landowner hunting licenses, adding an important sporting and recreational component to the property. Improvements reflect both the history and continued use of the ranch. An original historic homestead remains on the property, while a rustic residence and separate cabin were constructed in later years. A substantial 6,000-square-foot barn with a covered turnout area provides excellent facilities for horses, livestock, equipment and ranch operations. The improvements maintain the ranch's authentic Western character and complement the land rather than overwhelm it. Access is excellent for a high-country ranch, with convenient access directly from County Road 71. The nearby community of Guffey retains the personality and rustic character of a small Colorado mountain town. Historic Cripple Creek is also within easy reach, offering dining, entertainment and a direct connection to Colorado's mining-era history. At 493.6A± acres, the ranch offers enough scale and diversity for horses and livestock while also being well suited as a private recreational and sporting property. Horseback riding, elk and mule deer hunting, hiking and exploring the ranch are natural fits for the land. The ranch's Pikes Peak views, year-round water, ponderosa forests, wildlife, hunting opportunities, useful improvements and excellent access make it a well-rounded Colorado mountain property. Its history as the home of Hall of Fame cowboy Larry Mahan adds something that cannot be recreated—a genuine connection to one of professional rodeo's legendary figures and to the Western heritage that continues to define this part of Colorado.
