Colorado Elk Unit 41,42,411 1st Rifle

The cliffs of the mesa provide some absolutely amazing glassing opportunities with no logical way to make a move on a herd of elk when seen. It sure is fun to glass elk 10 miles away though and gives you something to move to and target the next day.
There’s some idiots from from a yupper state that have been shooting long range off the rim into Whitewater Basin the last few years. They don’t even bother to hike in and check on their shots. CPW knows and is looking for them.
 
That country can be THICK. Meaning travel and glassing through it can be pretty hard. Don't let your camp get raided by a bear
So true, some of the 'open' stuff on OnX is actually head high oak brush that is virtually impassable! Also, saw one of the biggest bears I have seen on opening morning of first rifle. Grab a bear tag!
There are elk in some of the ‘thicker’ areas though. IMG_4414.jpeg
