Price per acre is not the issue. Having a cabin in a good area is the issue. In my mind, the 150 acres he links above buys him nothing more than I have: a place to put a cabin in an area close to hunting and fishing. So you can spend $350,000 for a cabin site or $35,000

And for that I got 3 acres of aspens at 9000 ft with an all weather road and electricity to the front of the lot. No phone lines, but the area gets decent cell service. All that one mile from a great public fishing lake and two miles from national forest that goes on for over 20 miles with great hunting. You might be able to duplicate that or beat it with the fall of land prices, but I am satisfied I got a good deal.
