Lizard Head

[tsrhsr]

My hunting buddies are looking at Lizard Head Wilderness area for DIY elk trip in Sept. I was told by Colorado DOW that the area is not heavily crowded by other hunters.

Can anyone confirm this?

Any additional thoughts you wish to share please PM me.

Thanks

There are definately quite a few elk in the area, but I have seen a fair amout of hunters when I have been in there. I have hunted bow and muzzleloading seasons and have always bumped into several hunters on most days. I did not go in farther than about 3-4 miles, but with that wilderness, it is harder to get much farther since it is long (east to west) and not so deep (north to south). FYI, I have only hunted on the south side of the wilderness.

Public land in Colorado = plenty of company, even in wilderness.
As much to your advantage as your disadvantage if you play it right.
No big deal, just shoot the elk anyway.
