Southwest of Buena Vista are a number of peaks over 13,000 feet along with the 14,000-foot Mount Antero.
This area gets a lot of recreational use during early September. ATVs, motorcycles, four-wheel drives, mountain bikers and hikers all use this area due to the number of trails and old mining roads. Spotting a trophy is about 30% of the hunt. Preparation of gear, physical conditioning, and a positive mindset will go a long way to a successful hunt. This is an extremely challenging hunt with goats in the 8-9" range available.
