All Dressed Up with Nowhere To Go ?

This mountain parcel is a perfect retreat destination for someone now living in Phoenix or elsewhere in Arizona.

Because the desert state of Arizona doesn't have any real mountain ranges, combined with a serious lack of water and summer temperatures reaching well over 100°, the entire state is a poor choice for a long-term survival retreat. This hideout is nestled high in the Rocky Mountains of southwest Colorado (approximately 450 miles from Phoenix) and so a 6 hour bug out drive is required to reach the site. Having an established and well-stocked retreat ¼ day drive away is far better than being what is sometimes referred to as “all dressed up with nowhere to go” (i.e., you and your family trapped in a large city with all your precious survival gear and food and a million zombies trying to freeboot it).

Located on 4.19 acres at 8000 feet in the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado is an Earth-Sheltered Concrete structure built for the long haul.  Green built to save energy, but built super strong for protection against almost any man-made or natural disaster including the possibility of a TEOTWAWKI event!  

The main house is a 50'x 86' elongated dome with 6 to 8 inches of 12,000 psi shotcrete (air placed concrete) and miles of steel re-bar form the shell of this structure.   Through a 6' x 30' tunnel is an attached garage/workshop area which is 24' x 66' and is a second floor level entry.  An additional 24' x 36' out building could be used for shop, storage, barn, or possibly as a caretakers quarters.  'This extremely strong building has a published life span of a few hundred years by FormWorks Building of Durango, Colorado... but is more likely to still be standing in a thousand years!   It has the ability to support a large family or a similar sized group.
