Colorado Unit 40

[stilltrying]

Looking to hunt unit 40 (2nd season deer) next year. Wondering if you can hunt out of Grand Junction and the BLM land on the east side of the unit or if you are best served - hunting the west side of the unit by the Utah border.

It is about an hour drive from GJ to out west. So, you can hunt from GJ. You might, might, be able to hunt off the Tabeguache, of the east end and walk up, if you have a sxs or a REAL 4x4. It is a Jeep trail and I do mean trail. Your 4x4 needs 18" of clearance.

Correct
You can park at Bang’s Canyon and go in.
It’s not that bad but don’t take a stock truck in there unless it’s a beater!

Thanks for the responses, how is the drive over to glade park from GJ. Is that road fairly passable with a 4 x 4 truck or would you suggest a side by side.

I think I answered my own question looking at google - if you take the road up to Bang Canyon and continue on that road it goes right into Glade Park. Looks like all paved. Is that the best way to get to glade park?

Either that or through the Colorado National Monument
