Colorado 3rd hunt weather
Usually snow by third, but nf is at all different elevations, higher you go more snow you'll have. It's a 9 day season, hard to lose a whole hunt. The snow increases effort for sure. I'd pretty much cross out access roughly above 11k ft without a sled, tracked wheeler or hard hike. Without more... -

When you just can't stop shooting
I had figured also trespassing, but they don't clearly say trespassing or not with crossing two fences. My opinion of course. But under 2k a hunter. Nothing to scoff at sure, but that's the price I've paid for private land hunting access and never had a chance at 54 ducks. I am curious how a...- Hyhunter

When you just can't stop shooting
Thats not much fine for over twice the limit. Here's where I'm disappointed. If they had cut down any tree it would be a bigger fine. Ive worked with foresters who come up with huge values for illegally cut down trees saying the cost of damage comes from original cost+age+shade value+what it...- Hyhunter

Colorado 2nd vs 3rd Rifle
Feel like that's all on the individual... Advantage to me of 2nd is often it's the first rifle season in the unit and deer will be where I scouted them. 2nd takes less points normally and I can then repeatedly draw the tag faster. Quality stats is subjective to me. I'd rather have these 2 first... -
OnX Hunt Research Tools
I played with it this week too. 🗑 couldn't filter out private and public land tags in co, couldn't figure out random odds in wyo. For co I actually find cpw excel sheets more intuitive. I hope they fix it soon, at the moment it's embarrassing and disconnected with the user of them to release...- Hyhunter

Hydration drinks?
Looks like the body armor has alot of potassium which is very useful. Powered has much less potassium but more sodium. I prefer liquid iv for the potassium and sodium, but that's anecdotal to my personal performance. For electrolyte drink the general consensus is to look for potassium, sodium...- Hyhunter

Solo Elk Hunt in Colorado: Am I About to Embark on a Glorious Disaster?
I say go do it. My first solo bull elk success was up in that country on a first season rifle hunt. Only 2 miles in the way the crow flies, but over 4 hiking, lots of down trees. There's plenty of cool temperature holes around there to chill meat. Took a few days to get the meat out in 4 trips... -

To illuminate or not
I've always used tactical red dots and swear by them. When I use scopes without illumination I just feel unnatural like something is missing. I find the red dot on rifle scopes helps me with faster target acquisition and tracking. But in hunting shouldn't really be worried about target tracking
