This is the latest info I’ve been given by someone who is in the know.

The boulders are not for sale, but the parking area is. Fortunately, the parcel of land is in a rockfall zone with most of it also in a flood plane. So it is unbuildable. What the seller is hoping to do is sell the parcel to a rich sucker in Aspen who will buy it and apply the “credits” to increase his/her allowable square footage to a planned monster house near Aspen. That’s how folks get around the Pitkin County square footage limit.

So, in a nutshell, the Redstone boulders are status quo until someone pays 1.5 million for unbuildable land. If the land sells, and the new owner shuts the present access, then we can continue to access the boulders via National Forest, on the dirt road a little closer to Redstone. The boulders are on National Forest land and wont be sold. End of story.
