    Verify augmentation plans + diligence on the priority date

    Recommendedwater

    10 water rights with oldest priority 1863. In Colorado's prior-appropriation system, this puts the parcel near the front of the call line in dry years — verify augmentation plan membership and any pending change-of-use applications.

The land

What the ground itself is — cover, soils, buildability, water, minerals, and the public land around it.

Land cover
NLCD 2021 — Evergreen Forest predominant. “Open” = grazable shrub, grass, pasture & crop.

Open / grazable33%

Buildability
Construction feasibility synthesized across slope, soils, landslide & flood — the constraints a land buyer pays for, joined to one parcel.
Build constraint
Favorable

No significant build constraints in the data available for this parcel.

Partial coverage — based on the soil/geohazard layers present for this parcel; the read sharpens as those backfill.

Climate profile
Long-run climate normals at the parcel centroid, averaged over 2014–2023. Drives growing season & water for ranch/ag use, plus snow load for buildability.

The snow-load band is a buyer-facing heuristic from annual snowfall, not an engineered ground-snow-load design value — confirm with the local building department before relying on it.

Water security
Decreed surface-water rights & seniority synthesized into one prior-appropriation read — the water question a ranch or land buyer leads with.
Water security
Senior

Senior decreed water with priority back to 1863 — a senior priority date under Colorado prior appropriation; what actually conveys, and on what terms, is established by the decrees and title diligence.

Water well
A permitted water well falls within this parcel (primarily domestic). A permitted well is real, recorded water access from the CO Division of Water Resources — and on unbuilt rural land it is often the gating utility for buildability.
