My 18 yr old son drew this tag. It goes from Nov 5th thru Nov 13th. We have never hunted Colorado. We are doing our best to gather any info we can. It will be a DIY and we'll probably plan 1 scouting trip and then spend about 5 days there for the hunt. Just my son and I - our last hunt together for at least 3 years.

Any info/help is greatly appreciated.
 
Scouting will be good to get a lay of the land and access roads but, won't really help if your looking for deer. This is primarily a migration hunt and your 3rd season permit is a great time to hunt unit 22. Depending on the weather conditions during your hunt the deer could be spread out all over the unit. However, if you get some serious snow and cold prior to your hunt the deer should bunch up much more on the northern end of the unit. There are quite a few roads but, also private. Get the blm maps that show land status and you'll see what is accessible and what isn't. Most people road hunt this unit and you'll be bumping into alot of elk hunters (over the counter bull permits). So, find a few of those places away from the roads and you should do pretty well.
