Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Some help w/ CO 76 (cows only)

I hunted there five years ago and it took 10 points to draw a bull tag as a non-resident if I remember correctly. How many did it take for this year?

I shot a nice 6X6 in the timber southwest of Jarosa Mesa which is 8 miles SSE of Lake City.A lot of area 76 is right at or above timberline so get to running if you aren't already.

The area between Creede and Spring Creek Pass (Bristol Head,Table Mt., Snow Mesa, etc.)had quite a few camps.

Hunting above timberline was a little unusual because unlike how they tend to act down lower, the elk would feed high and descend down into the timber.
