This region of Colorado is known for its high elk populations offering hunters an excellent chance of harvesting both bull and cow elk. Opportunities to harvest 2 elk per hunter are possible; unit 421 is classified as a List B unit which means depending on the season you are hunting, a hunter can harvest an additional antlerless elk. Located in game management unit 421, over the counter elk tags are available for archery, 2nd rifle and 3rd rifle season as well. Elk can be found on the ranch from early archery season all the way through the late rifle seasons. Mesa County is renowned for HUGE mule deer, there are 47 documented typical mule deer bucks listed in Boone and Crocket records book! Don't underestimate the trophy potential of the local black bears either! Other species found on the ranch include Merriam turkeys, mt. lion, coyote, and bobcat.
