MW357, It is a very tough unit for elk and not much country to move around in. Guys do get lucky every once in a while when elk are pushed out of Red Ranches, but not that often. Your almost better hunting them 4th season, but you are going to hunt some nasty country.

We found several deer in the mid 80"s in unit 62 that had it. At the time we did not know exactly what it was, but now they I have seen it and know what it is for sure, that is exactly what it was. We even told the game warden at the time and he did nothing.... :mad:
Well we had a great 9 days hunting here in our home state of beautiful Colorado. The kids all had tags (not kids anymore 24,23,and 20 years old now) and my daughter killed the first buck of the season opening morning around 8:45. Her best buck to date.
Then my oldest son filled his tag on...
Dad and I had another great muley hunt. It was a very warm season, but we stiil seen up to 25 deer every day with 5-6 being bucks. The best buck we found was on opening day around 8:30 in the morning. Dad got to within 90 yards of him, but was not comfortable with the shot and did not take it...
