    Colorado Unit 551

    Does anyone have experience hunting Unit 551 in CO? Friend wants me to go out and hunt with them 3rd season. They drew tags in adjoining unit, so i will be on my own. There are 3 units with OTC tags adjoining the unit they are hunting, but 551 is close and decent hunting success

    I haven’t found that the ATV traffic effects the elk. The elk are in there but tend to move quite a lot. I have a couple areas that have had elk passing through but I really need to figure out their hiding spots.

    Pronghorns in Gunnison basin?

    The area has a small population that gets somewhat frequently hammered by tough winters. The population objective for 66, 67, and 551 combined is 450 animals, and the 2019 postseason estimate was 320. The trophy quality does not approach justifying the 19 points it takes to draw a license in...

    Legal? Who is shooting?

    Straight from page 36 of the 2021 Big Game Brochure. There should be zero debate or question, it's a legal bull.

    First buck

    I drew my first antelope tag this year in Colorado GMU 551 for muzzle loader. This unit is better known for elk and deer, but it has a small pronghorn population. I spent a lot of time scouting this summer and was encouraged by what I was seeing. No monsters, but several bucks I would be...

    archery 551

    Hi redwards. I also am hunting archery in 551 and had the same concern. I asked a few of the mountain bike and fly fishing shops about the 551 area traffic and none seemed to think there would be much traffic in the area. However, I asked around Crested Butte, so that may not be the most...

    Colorado Unit 551

    Yeah, but I only hunted that area a couple times. The elk move to difficult terrain once hunting season starts. Be prepared to be hiking canyons and the thick dark timber. If the temperature is warm head up high and hunt the higher elevations. It's a difficult area to hunt but chance of...
