I have a few Colorado nr bear points and may hunt this fall. I've harvested a few bears but looking for a decent size color phase. What size bear is doable in Colorado?

I would have to say that the 400lb bear is very rare but there are a few in CO I think we have bigger bears than most of the western states given there is no baiting, no spring season and no running with dogs. Most bears in this state live longer than most, but that is because they are hard to kill. We do see quite a few color phase bears but I would say a 200lb bear is average. Also for the reasons above we have quite a few bears in a good area I have glassed as many as 5 in a morning.
I can't begin to tell you how much I wish there was a spring season.
A 400 lb. black bear is like the 200 lb. wolf... Mainly in the fairy tales the local rednecks tell.
Agreed, I really wish we had a spring season. I have been buying points for Utah to try out a spring hunt.
Forget about points. Idaho or Montana, multiple bear sightings daily on OTC tags. 8 week season, cheap, spring or fall. It's a calendar year tag so actually 16 weeks.
