I elk unted in Arapaho National Forest in Col. year before last. Saw quite a few elk and shot a 5x4 on the last day. What was pretty cool is that it ajoins Rocky Mountain National Park and they allow you to cross their meadows to access National Forest land. We'd try to spot some good bulls under the moon light in the mornings and try to get up the mountains from where they were in the meadows and call them in! It worked the third day and was an awesome experience. We camped in the forest as well. My biggest expense was flying the processed meat home$$$$$! Won't fly again!
