Set to make the most of views of the more than 14,250-foot-high Mt. Wilson – the highest summit in the Rocky’s San Miguel Mountains – the residence was built using two-story iron buttresses to create open living space. A wall of glass faces the mountain peak, known as a fourteener due to its elevation.
