This is my first year hunting CO, after hunting southwest WA for 14 years (pretty much split between archery and firearm) without tagging an elk. I was only able to get out for three days (limited vacation time due to starting a new job) but it's clear I have much to learn. I had a tag for 3rd season in GMU 19, and the weather was much warmer than I anticipated. Reading the comments in the thread above, I think I do need to cover more ground quickly to find the elk, and not spend any more time than necessary where there aren't any elk.
Already looking forward to getting out more over the summer for more scouting, and then next season to continue the educational process.
