How does the hunting pressure compare between 2nd/3rd/4th in CO. Just looking for general info as I'm sure it varies by unit. Thinking about planning a second hunt a few weeks or a month after my annual Wyoming bowhunt in September. I can't stand to have 11mpnths to wait when I get home at the end of September each year.

In the units I hunt (71/711) first is fairly busy due to the number of deer hunters. 2nd isn't too bad, just warm and relies on people pushing elk/deer out of 'the glade' area and down into the Delores River canyon (800' deep!). 3rd has double the hunters of 2nd. As tuff said, 4th is all draw so fewer hunters but, usually, more cold weather.
