Be sure and look up the dates on each hunt. On many of them, they moved them back two weeks. Several of them still start the first Saturday in September. More nonhunters to contend with as this is usually around labor day, but, I still like the early dates better.
That said, the most coveted seem to be 43, 82/86 (Sangre de Cristo), and unit 74. 471 seems to be easier to draw, and has easier access, but I don't think the trophy potential is as high there.
I hunted the Sangre de Cristo hunt and came away with a good buck, but that country is STEEP, and the best areas are somewhat locked in by private (especially on the west side).
If you wanted to stay in the area, so you can do more scouting, I would suggest 43 (Maroon Bells) or 44 (Holy Cross). Both will require packing in many miles to have a chance at a trophy.
