Noted. Thank you. Can I ask what your definition of "higher" is? We were hoping to hunt between 9,000 and 10,500 foot but are willing to do whatever it takes. I really don't have a great feel for mule deer staging elevations relative to typical seasonal weather.
I am considering a Kodiak flexbow and using a buddy heater for cold nights but has anyone struggled with the propane heaters at altitudes of 7,000 plus foot. Oxygen sensor kicks them off?
First time in CO (or any western state) for mule deer, second season rifle with my 15 year old son. Have been e scouting the western side of unit 43 to be a little more realistic with our capabilities in that kind of terrain. I understand there will be other hunters; this we are very used to...
