Northeast of Gunnison and east of Crested Butte is home to a rebounding herd estimated at 40 Rocky Mountain Bighorns. A resident archery tag is shared between S-26 and S-70.
The Taylor River herd population had dropped in numbers. The Taylor River Canyon and surrounding mountains offer a very challenging hunt to tag holders. The canyon walls are sheer and rocky in many areas that can hide a small group of rams. Try to recruit friends to join you spotting rams in the canyon.
