A small group of ours goes out to unit 131 every year. Every year it seems like there is more and more elk. Heck, even the deer population is going back up. Where we hunt we are lucky if we see more than 4 other people bow hunting. That is a total of 8 or 9 people to hunt a big mountain, there is plenty of room for everybody. I can't help you with muzzle loader. Check out my webpage for pictures from our 2001 Colorado Hunting Trip.
Always adding Deer Cam picts. Check often.
