My 74 year old dad is a nonresident and has managed to accumulate 12 deer points in Colorado. We are looking at some 3rd season hunts to burn his points on this year. A few years ago he had a touch of altitude sickness on an elk hunt, so I try to keep him below 10,000 ft. He also has a knee that gives him trouble, so really rough county isn't great. We hunted unit 37 for mule deer on second choice tags a few years ago, and the terrain and altitude was a bit much for him. I was looking at unit 30 for him a few years ago, but I spent a few days over there during 3rd season with an OTC elk tag and only saw a few does. Unit 22 looks like cool country to hunt, but the reports from the field don't sound too promising. More recently, I've been looking into unit 6. Anyway, I would really appreciate any input from the members here.
