Colorado Unit 84 Hunting Information

INFO: Mule Deer Hunting in Colorado Unit 84

During archery season, hunters typically spot deer near open foothills or on ridges and canyons. Muzzleloader hunters who are willing to hike two or three miles away from the road have a good chance of seeing bucks with spreads as wide to 30”. Those who have permission to hunt on private land might see multiple bucks a day reaching 160” or more. For 2nd and 3rd rifle season, hunt during the early hours of the day and late in the afternoon. Deer will be moving to lower elevations during this time of the year. Hunt in isolated areas on public land for your best chance to see a buck.
