Elk 2nd rifle unit 24 CO

Post by shawn0915 » Fri Aug 28, 2009 8:37 am

My hunting crew and myself are hunting in unit 24 in CO. this fall. We will be packing on horse back. Just looking for any info any fellow hunters can offer. This will be our first time in this area.

I haven't hunted 24, but have hunted the Pagota peak area of unit 12. This is just north of 24. Lots of elk, but a fair number of hunters. After the first season the elk seem to really pocket up in the remote dark timber or head for private ground.
