hey hungryhuntergirl , Where I bow hunt is only about 50 mile's north of there. I hunt the Wearhouser land. They own around 485,000 acre's there. I see lot's of Elk every year there. I like hunting that side of the state cus it's a 3 pt. or better area. I'm sure you'll have a great hunt. Be great to hear your hunting stories. I stay in the Castle Rock area..I'm sure the fella your hunting with know's this area..
