These are the first pictures that we saw of the property from the real estate agent’s website. We were most interested in the pictures that had trees and sweeping views of the valley. Once can never be certain how accurate these pictures are but we did like that they had been taken within the last year.

A number of places we had previously looked at had pictures three years old. Needless to say a lot had changed on those properties.

But of course nothing is more important than seeing a property in person so we bundled up into the car one cold winter day and headed into the mountains to see. What we found was a land far more picturesque than we expected.
