At a Glance
This unit is located in Central Colorado and lies just south of the town of Eagle. Great distributions o public land can be found here along with some incredible hunting opportunities. Great populations of elk can be found here but the mule deer populations are the main focus for many hunters. Rifle tags take many points to draw but the quality of hunting is well worth the wait.
Elk hunters have a good opportunity to take branch-antlered bulls. This is a great mule deer unit with few nonresident tags available but playing the points game can lead to fantastic hunting.
