Water wells (6)
6 permitted water wells fall within this parcel (primarily household use only). 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.

Geohazards
Radon zone is an EPA county-level rating — most Colorado mountain counties are Zone 1 (the highest tier), so testing is recommended on any build. The nearest mapped Quaternary fault is shown for context; Colorado’s Quaternary faults are sparse and largely low-slip-rate.
EPA radon zone
Zone 1 — highest potential (predicted indoor avg > 4 pCi/L)
