       At higher elevations, stands of Lodgepole Pine, Fir, and Aspen frame rocky cliffs and sweeping mountain vistas. Chimney Peak, the dramatic summit from which the ranch takes its name, and Cimarron Ridge lie to the East, Ouray to the South, Mt. Sneffels and the jagged, snow-capped peaks of Dallas Divide to the Southwest, and the Uncompahgre Plateau to the Northwest. With four distinct seasons, the views are ever-changing and always breathtaking.

       The sights and sounds of clear mountain waters enhance the beauty and value of Chimney Peak Ranch. Three creeks run through the property and, along with four spring-fed ponds, provide the water needed to operate the ranch and support livestock. These waters also support an abundant wildlife habitat, including elk, deer, black bear, mountain lion, wild turkey, grouse, and a variety of upland birds.

       For the angler, Cow Creek provides an ongoing supply of native trout.
