I can not begin to tell you how jealous I am. I hiked about 12 miles after a 5 hour drive in November to only see cows.

I saw a pretty big bull on private land, but couldn't find them on public land.

Were you on public or private? SW? NW?

Congratulations! There's nothing better than an elk hunt here in Colorado, even if you don't put one on the ground.

Did you hunt private or public land?

This was a hunt that was on PUBLIC land! Yes I am not kidding. There was alot of hunters that I was talking to that day and they had seen quite a few too.

Thanks for the comments.

Area 20? Or is that your little secret.

Very nice Elk, I hope you weren't too far from the Jeep.

Yes it was area 20. It was between Drake and Glen Haven on Triangle Mountain. And no its not a secret. I would send anyone that wants to know about it too. It will take about 4 or 5 preference points to draw this area.

Thanks for sharing that info! You are a true sportsman. I have been elk hunting 3 years in a row, walked about 35 total miles through the woods/mountains and have only seen cows and one spike bull on public land.
