    ID me

    Just an FYI for those that aren't aware. ID me works with a lot of retailers to give Military, veterans, LEO's, and others discounts. There are so many stores that give military discounts that I wasn't aware of. It's really easy to sign up.

    Colorado hunting atlas

    Just an FYI. The Colorado hunting atlas public land overlay is not very accurate. There is a lot more private land than I thought in the area we are going. Just a caution to others to make sure you know the boundaries, if there are any in your hunting area.

    How do you know if you need to trim your calls a little. What is it supposed to fit like. I have a couple that I seem to blow better than others, but I don't know if some need trimming.

    trail ?'s

    There is a marked trail that I want to use to gain elevation. Once at the top we can go in a few directions to access several drainages. All the trail maps have it as difficult. It's a 3000 foot elevation gain from 9k to 12k, they say 4 hours, and it's 4 miles to the top. For a flat lander...

    How far can you hear bugles?

    Being very inexperienced and only having elk hunted a couple of times. I'm curious how far can you hear elk bugling. I'm sure the terrain has some to do with it. But can you hear them from a mile, less, more?

    Colorado 70/71 fall rain

    When we were there the first two weeks of archery in 2015 it rained every day. Is that the normal weather pattern? Trying to decide on which rain gear I want to upgrade to. Something I may need and will spend most of the time in the pack. Or something that will get used daily.
