OTC tags need to go away, give regional or area managers the ability to set tag numbers, does not necessarily mean reductions. Tag reductions need to happen in overcrowded units. Overflow from other states after the draw and from draw units in Colorado are a big crowding issue and this would...

eliminate all OTC tags, this would help with the preference point issue, it will not cure the problem but would help. Going draw on all tags does not necessarily mean reduction in tag numbers. A lot of areas need reductions because of other states lowering non res #'s and those hunters coming to...

how were you guys successful in the reissue process, did you go to CPW office, call in, submit online? thanks

I support the restrictions and hopefully some enforcement. I don't know about the areas north of I70 but the BLM on Glade Park/Pinon Mesa is abused by ATV's it is out of control. I would look for clarification on the permitted uses as I don't think it includes outfitters.

pretty much a cookie cutter otc unit lots of hunters and there are elk not many big elk unless you go deep
