Colorado Unit 61 Hunting Information
In Colorado, Unit Wide Landowner Tags let landowners control hunting on their properties. These tags depend on the property's size and the number of deer or elk around, giving landowners and their guests the only chance to hunt there. This helps keep the number of hunters down, which is good for keeping animal numbers healthy and helps the land stay in good shape. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission looks after this program to make sure hunting is done right and helps nature.
If you purchase one of these landowner tags, you can hunt in some of the best spots in Colorado, like Unit 61, which is full of wildlife like antelope, deer, and elk. With these tags or vouchers, hunters can avoid the usual lottery system, and get straight to hunting trophy elk with rifles in Unit 61. This way of hunting is better for the animals and the land and makes hunting better on both private and public areas.
