Coming Soon

We're writing it now

The Journal is where we'll share what we actually know about caring for mountain properties. Not generic advice, but observations and guidance drawn from years of working in this terrain, in these conditions, at this elevation.

First pieces are in progress. If you'd like to be notified when we publish, send us an email at info@ridgelinelegacyproperties.com with "Journal" in the subject line.

What We'll Cover

Planned topics

These are the conversations we have with property owners every season. We'll put them in writing.

Seasonal

Pre-Winter Prep for Mountain Properties

What to do before the first serious snowfall, and what gets expensive when you skip it. Specific to western Colorado conditions and elevation.

STR Owners

Running a Short-Term Rental in Ouray or Telluride County

Local regulations, what guests actually need, and what the differences are between ski-town STR expectations and summer rental patterns.

Ownership

What Second-Home Owners Actually Get Wrong

The small oversights that become expensive problems, and the habits that protect a property's value in a mountain climate like this one.

Place

Spring in the San Juans

What actually happens when the snow melts at elevation, and why spring is when we discover what winter actually did to a property.

Seasonal

The Summer Property Checklist

Summer in the San Juans is beautiful and brief. What to inspect, maintain, and prepare for when the mountain shoulder season arrives.

Community

Why We Chose Ridgway

A personal piece about what this valley offers, and why being rooted here makes us better at the work we do for the people who own here.
