    Wyoming 90/10 for elk

    Spot on! I’ll buy 3 if they make it 3 years…even in CO, outside the metro area, in rural areas of the state like WY….it’s rough through the winter and the rest of the year for that matter.

    Wyoming 90/10 for elk

    Federal lands and national parks are all of ours, so yes inherietly many states join the effort to fight the fire protect the broad spectrum of ownership. Many states don’t join the effort to ensure pronghorn in WY are doing well. WY fights that battle and uses state resources to do so.

    Wyoming 90/10 for elk

    Some would argue that…but they would be mistaken. For years I have watched this forum and others whine about how much $$$ CPW, or other state agencies make on out of state hunters or hunters in general. They dont complain that the federal government is making money on those tags…they complain...

    Wyoming 90/10 for elk

    Federal/Public land equals every opportunity for you to enjoy, as we all own it. Camp, hike, bike, watch wildlife, recreate to your hearts content. Its yours, you paid for it with your federal tax dollars. State owned wildlife...equals no one is entitled to a tag period, especially if you dont...

    Colorado Unit 62

    I have heard this before, but I dont think its entirely true about 61 and 62. 61 and 62 are HEAVILY recreated all summer and year for that matter with ATV, UTV, hikers, outdoor recreation of all kinds, etc......I dont think the elk just magically know the difference between a recreationist...

    CPW seeks input, allocation of licenses

    Now, if CPW cut 50k big game tags a year and at the same time eliminated non resident hunting all together….while charging $150 a tag in lieu of $125…..quality of hunts would skyrocket, revenue would stay the same, and nearly every resident who wanted a tag would get one!

    Colorado Leftover/Reissue List

    Yepp….had one at the “Add to cart” step and it wouldn’t process.I usually do not chase trophy tags, but couldn’t help myself this week. Im about sick of the system tho….Colorados population has skyrocketed in recent years, so all the former residents compete with all the new residents which...
