Colorado Unit 49
Hunted 49 the entire archery season 2021. Yes, ENTIRE season! Solo. The area was recovering from the Weston Pass fire but doing so very slowly. It was very dry the entire season as in no water dry! Hunting pressure was pretty active throughout the season including muzzy season. Fair amount of... -

CO Unit 15, first rifle.
I'd sure appreciate any information about Colorado Unit 15 and in particular the Sarvis Creek Wilderness. I have hunted CO in many areas since the 1980's by every means you can name. (Most recently by solo backpack into the high country which I'd like to do again this year). I'll be motoring... -

Colorado GMU 54
I hunted first rifle w-a-y back in 2011 (hunted gmu 55 since) and I could probably send you some information about that hunt if'n you want. PM me and I will try to PM you back...I'm very poor with computers. -

First timer camp set up
I've been going to Colorado for years and years and my go-to base camp setup is a good-ol basic Coleman or the like...and I beat them to death. When I can see the stars through the fly I know it's time to drop another 50-bucks on a new tent. This normally takes 7 or 8 years of hard use by the... -

Father Son Elk Trip Questions
One week for an elk hunt? First time? Consider Colorado GMU 3 (GMU 3,4,5,214,301,441) COW elk, or GMU 54 BULL elk, 1st limited rifle. 5-day hunt. Zero points to draw. (I actually drew as my second choice...used no priority points.) Tried both once, gotta elk each time. Can't complain... -

Unit 67 muzzy colorado
Good luck in your efforts getting GMU hunt advice. Wish I had hunted the area you're hoping to hunt 'cause I'd give you what help I could. Just so you know, I've long since given up asking for even a little help with hunt areas on forums. Mostly I'd get zero responses or I'd get some silly... -

Need some advise for a first time elk hunt
Colorado will give you everything you will ever want for elk hunting. You pick the season, you pick the method you study the previous draw results and CO will do you just fine. Gain priority points by applying for a unit you have a slight chance to draw and if you don't, you get the point... -

Yippee! Yahoo! Found the maps....gave'm to my wife some time ago to offer for sale through some of her methods. She claims she sold like two of them but I got the rest including the ones we had camp and hunted from. I'll attempt to PM you with my particulars...my first time so bear with me... -

Colorado Unit 61 first rifle
Congrats on drawing a super tag! I hunted there (with my wife staying in camp) back in 2005 (cow elk + buck muley tags muzzleloading). Lucked out on a dandy cow first day... she was being "dogged" by a small 6X6 and never knew I was 20' away. Remainder of the hunt I relocated for the muley... -

CO Elk Up "Officially"
Hey Magicman....let me know how your son makes out in unit 49 this fall...I'm packing 8 elk points and at 67-years young have figured on cashing them in on unit 48 or 49 next year but other than the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness area I haven't got a clue as to where to scout. A little hint to a... -

First timer for DIY CO rifle
It seems like you've decided on 1st or 2nd rifle for your hunt and a bull is what you want (naturally.) You're pretty close on the pro's and con's of each season too. One very important thing to bear in mind is that any elk that values its hide heads straight for private land at the report of... -

CDOW - Wolves in Colorado
2007, GMU4 north of Craig scouting for a solo rifle elk hunt before the season off the SW shoulder of Black Mountain I cut a clear print of a very large canine. It dwarfed the Silva compass I used to indicate its size for a poor picture I took of it (disposable camera). Person at the sports...- Farmer

First timer for DIY CO rifle
Perhaps #2 of my reply above can be amended to read that your first choice can be for a GMU that has a slight chance of your drawing and if you don't you would gain the priority point. Your second choice should be the sure-bet unit you found in those draw statistics charts I mentioned. Your...
