A residential subdivision on Ptarmigan Mountain above Silverthorne, with elevated views across the Blue River Valley and Gore Range
Government Tracts is a single-family subdivision situated on the slopes of Ptarmigan Mountain above Silverthorne, offering elevated views across the Blue River Valley toward the Gore Range and Dillon Reservoir. Homes here sit at higher elevation than Silverthorne's valley floor, giving the neighborhood a more secluded character while remaining within a short drive of Silverthorne's commercial corridor along Highway 9 — one of Summit County's most accessible retail and dining hubs.
Ptarmigan Mountain's trail network provides direct access to hiking and mountain biking from the neighborhood, with connections to the broader Summit County trail system. Silverthorne's location at the I-70 and Highway 9 interchange puts Keystone, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain, and Arapahoe Basin all within a 20–30 minute drive. The free Summit Stage bus connects Silverthorne to all Summit County towns year-round.
Government Tracts is part of the broader Silverthorne real estate market. Buyers also exploring hillside neighborhoods above Silverthorne may want to look at Wildernest and Ptarmigan, two adjacent subdivisions on the same mountain with similar views and trail access.
Homes in Government Tracts offer elevated views and trail access that are difficult to find at Silverthorne's valley-level price points. To learn more about available homes or schedule a showing, contact the Perfect Mountain Home team at (970) 368-2799.
