I’m heading back to this unit this year again for archery elk. Never been there during rifle but i know during archery season last year it got pretty crowded on the muzzleloader opener but after that weekend the hunting pressure wasn't bad.
I know your first scenario you could draw a point and a tag. But for the second one I’m wondering myself. With applying for 3 or 4 other states it’s just hard to know what to do without knowing what tags you’re going to draw without the draw results coming out before Colorado’s application deadline.
