At a Glance
This unit is located in west-central Colorado and lies just south of the town of Grand Junction. This smaller unit is largely public and provides great hunting opportunities for all hunters. Good populations of deer and elk are found here but it can take some effort to locate good mature animals. Later in the year this units deer and elk populations will be centered heavily around the lower elevations where private land is commonly encountered. Land ownership maps will be heavily important here at this time.
Hunters who hunt on private land or hike around private parcels to reach remote, lightly hunted areas have a good chance of taking bigger bucks and small to medium size branched-antler bulls.
