Hunters discussing Colorado's Unit 60 report that the terrain is varied, with a mix of rugged mountains and accessible valleys, making it crucial to plan based on physical capability and preferred hunting style. The unit's elk population is robust, but success often hinges on understanding their movement patterns, particularly around season changes and weather shifts. Seasonality plays a significant role in draw odds, with many suggesting focusing on early-season hunts to maximize chances of encountering game. Overall, hunters recommend familiarizing oneself with the unit's topography and being flexible with strategies to adapt to the dynamic conditions.
A triangular unit that covers only about 270 sq.miles of mostly public land that borders Utah’s La Sal Mountains. Great access by many roads, remote areas require extensive backpacking or horseback riding to get away from well-traveled, easy access routes.
There is a moderate number of elk unless they migrate from the La Sal Mountains as well as low numbers of deer. There are also very few antelope in the unit with most bucks and bulls mostly nocturnal due to heavy ATV/UTV traffic.
