Perched atop Ute Pass is the "Center of the Universe"
Divide, Colorado’s town moniker is the “Center of the Known Universe.” The area is named after the point where the waters of the South Platte and Arkansas rivers separate and is perched atop the 9,165-foot Ute Pass. Divide is the entry point to numerous exceptional State and National Parks in Colorado. It is home to stunning mountain mansions, roomy ranches, and rustic lodges. “It’s got that mountain rural feel to it,” says Realtor Todd Zeller, who has sold homes in the area for eight years while working with Coldwell Banker. “People that live in Divide want to be out of cities. Some houses are second homes.”
