I have hunted Colorado 47 years without missing a season and it took me those 47 years to find those,killing an elk most years. Each might change a little every year, but will hold elk unless some one put a road thru it, it burned, or some idiot decided to set up a camp in it.

I won't be hunting elk this year, and maybe never again.


Sorry to hear that Vince. You had a good run, killed more than most.
