[lostinOregon]

Has anyone seen the quotas this year yet. Wondering if there will be an increase in quotas in certain areas.

How do they decide a year and a half in advance how many tags to issue? There's a hunting season and a winter before that season.

It's not that long, but it is a problem of the draw system.

jainoon's link is the correct info regarding the upcoming May meeting. I should have posted a link instead of copying and pasting info.

Nope, just the word "upcoming".

CPW has posted their agenda items with detail for the May 5-6 commision meeting. The following link will take you to proposed quota information.

http://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Commission/2015/May/ITEM10-ChapterW-2Final.pdf

It's a weird document as it is slow to load and several pages are blank (3 - 8) at least on my computer.

Anybody have insite into why they lowered elk quotas in Unit 61 when the unit is in the (1% - 10% above Long Term Objective) group?

I clicked on the link and was happy to see the estimated herd numbers in NW Colorado were up and so were the tag quotas. That's what a couple of mild winters will do for you.

Deer tags went down again in my area.

Good thing I have elk, because getting a deer tag is a pain.
