Access Points Unit 53 West Elk Wilderness

[hunt33]

I am going to do some backcountry hiking and exploring in this unit this summer have never been there and have been researching maps etc. but if there is someone who has spent some time here would love some pointers or to talk to to them a little more about access points terrain etc.

Hunt 33,

I used to spend a lot of time in the WEW. We came in mostly from the north side up the Coal Creek drainage. Throughline, Little Robinson, and a bunch of nameless trails. Give me a shout. PM with phone number sent.

Howdy hunted that area out of Crawford,up on little sand and big sand mountain.made a day camp on little sand.and hunted out of there,there is a basin from little sand about 2 miles or so.We hunted only the 3rd season,and holds a lot of elk around that time.

JC,

I have been there too, just about killed me also. Pretty steep country but I think I would do it again.
