I don't blame any state for doing anything that betters their ability to improve their fish and game management programs, nor do I feel like I am being screwed, or cheated, or anything else. I do find it mildly annoying that a state has the unfettered ability to charge whatever they wish to hunt public lands that my tax dollars pay for, and that I own....but that's hardly a poke at Colorado.

My only emotion is a little bit of sadness in the realization that my chances of hunting out West in any meaningful way keep getting smaller and smaller.
