Well, we sent in and hopefully will draw our muzzie either sex tag for unit 54 in CO with 3 pref pts. I've already bought a topo map for the unit but are there any other maps anyone would recommend?...

Hey guys, has anyone tried the Salewa Alp Trainer Mid GTX boots before? On backcountry.com they have great reviews but I'm just worried about ankle support. Any info or other great ankle support...

Guys with the Lowa Tibets...what seasons did you hunt with them? We're planning a muzzleloader hunt this Sept and as bad as my feet sweat, these looked warm. I'm looking at Salewa Alp Trainer Mids....

You S.O.B.....just kidding, congrats! That's what we're hoping for next yr....get those pics up!

Hey guys, has anyone hunted unit 500 in CO? My question is not where in the unit but do you think it is worth putting in for this unit as a 2nd choice if we don't draw a muzzie license for unit 54?...

I often wondered that even with the CO game unit map on line too. If I look on the roads and aerial map, it shows a bunch of roads in unit 54 but when I just received the topo in the mail a week ago...

I was thinking about the lighter layers as well. Usually for 3rd and 4th season rifle CO I wore just a t-shirt and a cheapo orange button up from Walmart when I was hiking and then when we'd take...

We've done the Primos test on some pretty stinky stuff and it actually worked but some of the other brands, still was rank after the spray hit it. But I do agree with it not keeping up while hiking...

That's what I was wondering about...helps tremendously! And that's the part why we're going to come out early and mainly scout the roads to get in there. Thanks again

Hey guys, curious what you mountain gurus do? Here in IA, our stands are at lost 3/4 of a mile away and on "level" ground compared to the Rockies so I can pack in some Primos Scent Eliminator spray...

Yea, agreed with scent clothes...don't think they're worth the extra $,IMO. Uncles have always pounded into my head, play the wind and throw your clothes in a tote with pine bows. MNHUNTER, you being...

Not sure what you have? Hunting buddy and I have Bushnell Trophy Cams and a couple Cuddbacks. The Bushnells will last 6 months or better. I'd say in the mountains you'd have a pretty slim chance of...

Ha after reading some other posts, didn't mean to try and steal any hunting spots by asking where to hunt. Just wanted to know some roads because through my years hunting CO units 23 and 24, by...

Awesome, that's not bad. Just curious, what do you take for clothes? Not sure what level to get yet for APX gear or if I should just get their raintamer. Plan on taking a heavy duty plastic bag and...

Are a lot of you eating the dehydrated meals? Also trying to figure out our 2013 CO rut hunt, for food. the Mtn House Meals say 2 servings but is it more like 1 hearty meal? Plan on taking meals,...

Well, according to the hunt planning team it requires 1 or 2 pts. So I'm crossing my fingers. I'll probably do a 2nd choice of unit 500 and if happen to get drawn for that, deal with it the best I...

Well, I think I am going to put in for CO unit 54. By the topo and google earth, it looks rough. It sounds like the Rainbow Lake area gets pounded pretty hard so I'm trying to steer clear of that...

Yea I'm just looking for some starting points I guess. Don't know these ares and being 12+ hrs away makes it tough to scout.

No tag yet. The hunt planners said these 3 units are either 2 or 1 pp required for a muzzie tag. I have 3 so I would expect to draw. I just don't have a clue where to start/which unit to put in for....

Hey guys, I'm planning a pack in trip to PROBABLY one of these 3 units. I have 3 pref points for elk and plan on muzzleloading. I normally rifle hunt 12/23/24 in CO but for muzzleloader I'd need 10...

Ah didn't know that...good to know for the future!

Just looking for ANY helpful info on any of these units for a 2013 muzzie elk hunt.

Get a Thermacell! For our turkey season, the mosquitos can be pretty bad. After a few minutes of the Thermacell going, their won't be a squitor around. I've also heard of a lot of guys using these...
