I don' t live in that area of the state but do keep a close watch on the water situation.The good news is ......is that most of the state has recieved good moister levels this year.the bad news is .....is that the western 3rd of the state has been very hot and very dry and the southwest areas are still extremely dry. However there is still decent snow run off that will keep seasonal creeks flowing.So where would you hang out if you were an Elk?I will be hunting north of Grand Junction and have the same concerns.
