Exceptional Hunting Grounds on the Grand Mesa

These units provide a mix of aspen groves, dark timber, oak brush, and alpine meadows, creating ideal habitat for high numbers of game. Both resident and migrating elk herds move through the region, and mule deer thrive in this diverse terrain. Over-the-counter elk tags, strong draw odds for deer, and consistent herd numbers make these units especially appealing to hunters who return year after year.

The business has an established reputation with repeat clientele and offers guided and drop camp elk, black bear and mule deer hunts as its primary draw. Opportunities also exist to expand into summer horseback rides, pack trips, and fishing excursions to diversify revenue streams.
