Heres what I did.... I have hunted Colorado for elk the last 2 years and have just sent in for my Muzzleloader permit. The best way to find an area i found is to go to
www.biggamecd.com Its from Colorado Outdoors and they will show you the unit descriptions,BLM Land, Private Land,Summer Range,Winter Range,Resident Herd,Type of terrian,Vegitation,Cow to Bull Ratio,Hunting Pressure and a lot more. I ordered the cd and did some looking at different areas. You should still contact the Dow like Silvertip suggested and get you a game regulation book comming That way you can see what units are an over the counter tag.
