Just returned from Colorado elk hunt and was extremely disapointed with the trip. Hunted the Sweetwater cow camp area and the only elk seen was a herd of about 300 all on private ground. Definately wouldn't recomend it to anyone. I guess a couple of guys took bulls during 1st season but only one during second. Hiked alot of miles and even horsed in about 7 miles one day and never saw anything. Will look for areas with large expances of public next time where the elk can't get on the private and hole up.
