I wish I would have posted sooner. Ive been on this site for 10yrs reading and trying to figure best option. About time I’m ready they have a bad winter kill and I start over. Thanks to all of you that have replied and had the patience to share. I still haven’t decided. Going to keep reading...

I’m 70 now don’t have time to wait. 66 looks to have a lot of wilderness area. Would need a guide, I assume.

Non Resident. Thanks PRC

Getting old and need to go somewhere. Will probably go with guide. Which one first and where. Been trying to get an eastern mule deer hunt but can’t fit it in my budget.

Couple of decades ago I bought a saddle for mtn hunting. Its an old bronk busting saddle with high cantle and pretty big swells. That think save my bacon several times, like crossing a creek and the mule I was dragging didnt come. Anyway that thing set great. It was a little heavy with...

I used 6 pts to get bear tag. I was hoping somebody might have a better deer unit to recommend. Just getting tired of waiting and not getting to hunt in Co. I drew my sheep tag two years ago in unit 32. Really wanted to hunt eastern Co for muley but the price for guides has went up alot...

So Ive drawn a bear tag for this year. Really excited to get into this unit. Going to use this hunt to learn the unit. Ive got 18 pts for elk and deer. So next year im going to use one for this unit and hope I draw. If that works then Ill be back the next year with the other species. So...

Hey Beanman, nice pic. How good a bear is that? Been reading alot of your post the last wk. thanks for chiming in

Thanks again, This is also my first bear hunt. Ive hunted alot of elk and muleys in co and nm. Figure Ill do a lot of glassing. Hows access, See a lot of trails. Are these foot or motorized?

Plan on coming 4 days early to learn area and get acclimated. Have a NF map but no topos yet. Kind of waiting to narrow it down to a couple of topos. Thanks

Will be my first time in unit. Maybe somebody can put me on a mesa or drainage with lots of acorns or berrys. Just point me in a good direction or tell me where not to go. Will try to hunt open week. 9/2. Thanks

Ok. Thanks

Drew a bear tag in unit 61. Fall rifle hunt in sept. Will be my first time there. Any starting points or suggestions!? Whats favorite food for this area?

Thanks guys, I didnt expect a honey hole. But I appreciate you evaluation of unit 21. Seems like about 4-5 yrs ago I was looking at unit 40 I think and then the big winter kill. Since then Ive not had a specific target. Ive got 17 elk points also.

Getting an early start. I really want to hunt deer this year. Im not getting any younger or skinnier. Lol. I take the "huntin fool". But sometimes I think there are some better units that I could have enough pts for. Oh forgot Im a non-resident. Anybody got a secret they might share...
