I am meeting my hunting partner in Rawlins tomorrow at around noon. He is going to hop in with me and we need somewhere to park his truck for 10 days. Are there fellow MM'ers in the Rawlins area that we could leave a truck at? Thanks in advance!

I'm aware it a long shot this late in the game! I'm heading out next week to unit 83 chasing elk. Was curious if anyone knows of any local guys that provide a packout service. We are going a few miles deep and would be sweet to have someone lined up for a packout! Thanks!

My buddy got out to unlock the hubs and his binoculars must have fell out right in the county road. They were a set of Vortex Viper 10x50's with Kuiu harness straps still attached. Lost at the intersection of County Road 28 and Willow Creek road up Cathedral Creek in unit 21 on November 20th...

My dad set his Ziess binoculars on top of his jeep and got to talking with another hunter and drove off. This was up Derby Creek in unit 25. If anyone knows someone who might have found them or found them themselves please hit me up. He saved up forever to get those binos and would love to get...

Just looking for some general info on the spring bear hunts. I am a NR and thinking about coming up to chase bears. I dug through the regs a bit and from what I could tell these are over the counter tags, is that correct or is it a draw? Also I saw on there where they had a female quota. Does...

Haven't posted in quite a while. Thought I might share my buck from this year. I ended up taking this buck on the 5th day of season. I had a backpack trip planned and was supposed to leave that night but hunted out of my dad's base camp that morning not intending to shoot anything. I had to...

I've got a guess on score of this bull but wandering what everyone else thinks he scores.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-16-16 AT 09:39AM (MST)[p]Was able to get this bull the 3rd evening of a solo backpack hunt in the wilderness. It was insanely difficult getting him out by myself but got it done. Took me two full days of packing. Feeling pretty accomplished at the moment.

My dad and I are going to apply for an antelope tag this year. I have 4 non-resident points and he has zero. The way I understand it is that they average the points of the people in the group. So in our case that's 2 points each. Is this correct? Just want to make sure so we apply for a tag that...

Just seeing if anyone had any info on this bull. It's been making the rounds on Facebook. Supposedly it was hit on the interstate in Debeque a few days ago. What a stud bull and a shame no matter where it was hit.

We are gonna go camping next weekend and was wanting to go up by Atkinson res. anyone been up there lately? how much snow is up there? Might go up on the Unc. aswell, how much snow is up on the divide rd?

I feel bad for the 3rd season guys. No snow and T-shirt weather makes for some pretty crappy hunting conditions. Hope we get some snow for 4th season. Got a relative to take out and try and get an elk. Good luck 3rd season guys!

My brother finally got his chance and took this sweet buck on the third day of the early rifle hunt. Not terribly wide but deep forks, long mains and long brow tines puts him at 191-4/8". Beautiful buck and very symetrical. I'm stoked for him,

Packing meat on horses Looks like I'm taking the inlaws horses on a elk hunt at the end of September. They are great horses and I ride them quite a bit but neither of them have ever packed meat. I picked up some saddle panniers just need to know what I need to do to get them prepared so I...

We are taking the horses somewhere tomorrow not sure where. Thinking up on Grand Mesa or Uncumpaghre. Does anyone know of any nice trails to ride? We usually ride in the Rifle area so don't know where to go on the mesa or the Unc. and looking for something new.

Anyone know of a gunsmith in Rifle, Silt, GJ, Glenwood area? Just need some work done on my muzzleloader barrel and cant seem to find anyone that's in business anymore. I've called everyone I could find in the yellow pages and the numbers are either disconnected or they no longer take on work...

I should draw a Muzzy elk tag here in Colorado this year. I'm looking at switching bullets. Last time I muzzy hunted I used Powerbelts and although they grouped well I lost a bull that I shot at 30 yards broadside. I've heard of others having a bad experience with them as well. I bought some...

I'm going to head up to browns park this weekend to camp out. Has anyone been up that way recently? How much snow if any and is it dry enough to pitch a tent? Thanks

LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-14 AT 06:52PM (MST)[p]Got my 2013 high country buck back from the taxi today. Turned out great. Ended up stripping the velvet and coloring the horns myself. Coffee grounds colored them perfect. From the field On the wall

LAST EDITED ON Feb-07-14 AT 09:13PM (MST)[p]They posted the regs online. Looks like they found another way to scrape the bottom of our pockets residents and non-residents alike. http://wildlife.state.co.us/Hunting/BigGame/Pages/BigGame.aspx

Word around the campfire is you smoked a good buck! Let's see those pics!

LAST EDITED ON Oct-14-13 AT 09:40PM (MST)[p]My dad smoked this bull opening morning right at first light. Its been quite some time since he's connected on an elk and I couldn't be more proud to have been there with him. He's never taken a 6x6 and my mission this year was to get him one. After a...

I found this buck back in July. I posted a video of him asking if he would break the 180" mark. No one thought he would. I thought he'd be pretty close. Here he is in July Here he is the day I found him on the 3rd day of season. Its hard to see from the pics but it is the same buck. He...

Here's some bucks that have been hanging out behind my house.

LAST EDITED ON Jul-17-13 AT 10:59PM (MST)[p]Here's a video of a scouting trip last weekend. Found 1 pretty good buck (2m40s). Do you guys think he'll break 180 when he tops out? Kinda shaky so you'll have to pause it. I think he'll be close but a little weak on his right side. He does have a...

Drew the 44 early rifle tag. Did some scouting last weekend and found some bucks but also lots of yuppies. Just curious if anyone has had this tag and what their experience was. Do the yuppies thin out come September? Seems like every drainage has a trail in it. Any advice from someone thats had...

Anybody watch Rogan on Meateater? Its pretty humbleing to know that not everyone in Hollywierd is a pansy. He was definatley out of his element but he did good and took the experience with eyes wide open. Pretty cool that him and his buddy had the desire to go on a real hunt, good on them.

Has anyone hunted Tamarack lately? My dad hunted it about ten years ago but only a couple days so he doesnt have much info. Just wandering if it is any good anymore for deer hunting. If you have hunted it do the duck hunters get in the way and pressure the deer pretty bad?

Is there anyone but me that thinks that this show is the WORST produced hunting show in the history of hunting shows? Lots of whining and no hunting! I get that they are showing what a real hunting expedition is like BUT stretching it out to 4 or 5 weeks, come on! I somehow cant quit...

I'm looking to buy a new pair of binos. I have some nikon monarch 10x42's but wanna step it up to the next level, $500-$1000 range. I wear glasses and need a pair that'll work for my crappy eyes. Anyone have any advice?

I was just going through the points required and noticed that I have enough points to draw E-E-001-Y2-R which is a "Landowner pilot public license". Is this tag good for public land? The way I read it in the regs is that it is indeed good on public land. Anyone have any insight?

When do the regs show up in the mail??? I cant remember if its Febuary or March that they come.

The CPW site has updated the statistics for the 2012 draw odds and points required. Now I guess we'll see how much point creep we'll have to deal with this next years draw. http://wildlife.state.co.us/Hunting/BigGame/Statistics/Pages/Statistics.aspx

Only a few days to go and we'll be hitting the hills. I did some scouting on Sunday and found a bull with 30 cows chasing satellite bulls off and screaming his head off hopefully he'll be there on saturday morning. Seems pretty early for the elk to be rutting but we'll see.

Took a Sunday drive today to pass the time till bow season and saw this group of moose. Pretty good bull in there.

The list of leftovers is pretty sparse and I need two unit 31 deer tags. Prefer archery or muzzy but rifle will work too. Does anybody know somebody that knows somebody that has some tags?

What ever happened to the elusive Utah Mountain Man? Did they ever catch him?

I checked the box "If unsuccessful send; leftover draw". Does anyone have an idea when they send out the list to those who checked the box? I did not draw so I'm looking forward to seeing the list and realizing there aren't much for leftovers... I have a feeling I'm not hunting deer in my...

Thinking about goin camping up on the Uncumpagre on the Escalante side or from the Gateway side. Is it open? I've never been there.

Got this in an email, killed in SD apparently. The guy was by himself using the selftimer and had no idea it was even there till he downloaded the pics when he got home. Pretty scary.
