Hermosa Creek Trail. Pretty easy walk, good access, beautiful scenery, good campsites along the creek, check the regulations for fishing in there. Start at Hermosa Creek park on PR578, the access is through the Purgatory Ski resort.
After trying many other methods of recovery for severely herniated discs, including yoga, injections, chiro, etc, I had the surgery on L4-L5, L5-S1 in 2015. It worked like a charm. Recovery was rough and it was much more painful when I came to than I was expecting. Take the recovery very slow...
If you still support REI because you think that they support public lands, keep in mind that Vista subsidiaries Camp Chef, Federal and Savage are corporate sponsors of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers.
I'd like to see some evidence of antlered animals eating antlers. Has anyone ever witnessed anything eating sheds. You can clearly see where rodents chew on them when you pick up an old set and dogs love to chew on them but I have my doubts about how much of a nutrient source sheds are to...
Considering the time and money already invested in hunting, I would say an extra $150 to save time and make sure you are spending your money efficiently is worth it. The information may be able to be found elsewhere but having it all in one location allows me to spend less time researching the...

It really depends on the area, and style of hunt. Where I have been in Colorado seemed pretty easy but where I have been in Idaho breaks me off. You can't be in too good of shape and the better shape you are in will definitely improve your hunt.
Yes and No to all questions. Based on pressure and time of year all of these questions have different answers. They are less weary than whitetail generally but at those times they are surrounded by cows who are very weary. I think the big difference is that an elk will not go completely...
I don't want to sound hateful but I've been researching this hunt for a while and all of these questions are easily answered with minimal research on AZFG, google earth and weather underground.
Depredation on agriculture and competition with livestock is a big one. Some areas are managed for trophy quality, some for opportunity. Some units have restrictive terrain that deters a lot of hunters from participating beyond road hunting and very low success rates for the hunters that do...
