    CO GMU 18 Matheson reservoir

    Hey All, Does anyone have any experience around Matheson reservoir in CO GMU 18? I’m thinking about picking up a leftover cow tag for first rifle, and I have been looking at this area for a couple of years, just haven’t had the opportunity to get up there. There is private land around the res...

    Barr huntin’ time again near Steamboat Springs CO

    Well, didn’t get a bear. Turns out the area I had picked out in my escouting wasn’t exactly Bear Mecca. Found this out on the third day. I did talk to a guy the last day who hunts the area a lot and he gave me some great pointers, which was pretty cool. So, some good exercise, great pics...

    Barr huntin’ time again near Steamboat Springs CO

    Thanks for the responses. I must have read wrong; I thought there wasn’t a lot of oak brush around the Steamboat area. That was just based off of distribution maps I saw online. Now I know to expect to see some. Nothing beats on-the-ground intel. Flatlandhunter, I had a similar experience a few...

    Barr huntin’ time again near Steamboat Springs CO

    Well, it’s that time again: bear hunting. I’ve had a tag for the last three years and have not been able to go, mostly due to work. Not this year: I have my tag and I’m going. I’ve been doing my homework to narrow down my hunt area, but being a rookie bear hunter, I will take any tips I can...

    Hi, and thanks for the offer. The bear tag I have is for a really large area, so any pointers you can give would be much appreciated. I have 4 days to hunt, so I want to do a lot of e-scouting, but I want to do it intelligently. Thanks. --Dana

    Deer/Bear CO GMU 41/42/52

    Thanks wllm1313. Turns out I did not get the buck tag, so now I’m just looking for bear. Any pointers on where to scout would be great. Maytag encompasses several units, so I would like to narrow it down if I could. —Dana

    Deer/Bear CO GMU 41/42/52

    Hey All, I drew a bear tag for GMU 41/42/52 for the Sept season. I'm hoping to pick up a leftover muley buck tag for the same areas tomorrow when the tags become available. The muley tag would be for the muzzleloader season, which happens during the bear season, so I would be able to hunt with...

    Anyone Hunted the Kaibab?

    Ahhhhh.... Fond memories. Took my first deer there when I was 14 or 15. Can't help you now, as that was, well, more than a few years ago. Okay, a few decades ago. At the time there were deer all over. Wish you well! --Dana

    Tips for CO bear in Grand Mesa

    Hey All, Well, good news and bad news. Bad News: Didn't get the leftover bear tag for Steamboat Springs. Good News: DID get a leftover tag for Grand Mesa area! I know there are lots of bears in the area, but my tage covers 6 GMUs, soooo... Any tips to narrow it down would be greatly...

    Anyone hunt bear in the Steamboat Springs area in CO?

    Thanks Timbertrash. I know about the unfriendlies. No problem handling them. I think the Strawberry Park area is one of the places the PAW lady mentioned. I'll have to do a fishing/scouting trip up in that area in the late summer. Looks like getting a tag won't be an issue.

    Anyone hunt bear in the Steamboat Springs area in CO?

    Ya know, interestingly, the lady from the Steamboat CPW office told me that there is public land around the ski areas and that those would be great areas to try. Seems like, from everything I have seen here and heard from others, that hunting relatively close to town is the way to go. I don'...

    Anyone hunt bear in the Steamboat Springs area in CO?

    Hah! Well, I'll keep my eyes open around the mini golf. And if I find the culprit that stole your elk quarter, I'll tell him that this is for you before I plug him. --Dana

    Anyone hunt bear in the Steamboat Springs area in CO?

    Yeah, I picked up a leftover tag last year for this area but didn't have time to go. I called the CPW office in Steamboat and asked for any pointers and she told me the same thing. Seems like there's a lot of bears and they are getting too used to human garbage. Not good. I'll do some...
