Hi All -
Heading out to CO for my first elk hunt next week. We should be getting to CO late Tuesday night and hunting thru the weekend. It'll be a buddy and me, just taking in the adventure of a western DIY hunt. Any tips or suggestions for a first timer that you guys are willing to share? We're planning to hunt 33, 24, 25 or maybe stay a little farther north near the Craig area. We are coming prepared for pretty much anything from truck camping, to a main base camp, to a backpack camp. We are bringing ATV's as well, whether we'll use them or not we're unsure. But since we don't have any experience, we thought we'd come loaded for bear.
Really looking forward to it, and I'm enjoying reading the info you guys are sharing, really helps a rookie feel mentally prepared.
