[QUOTE="FULLFAN, post: 1741694, member: 37956"] I can add to this tread, Have been hunting Idaho as a non resident since 1983. Have been archery hunting elk for the past 10 years there, due to gun season being a circus. Did not get my Idaho archery tag this year because they were sold out. Returned last night from 9 days hunting Colorado, about an hour north of Craig on National Forrest. I set up camp on Wed the 16th, by Friday the 18th there were 9 other camps within a stones throw of me. First day of the season I saw 14 other hunters and 0 elk, change of plans on day 2. Hiked 3.9 miles from the horse trail and killed a respectable 5x5, found a place most would not want to walk to because most hunters are lazy. Being tagged out I spent a few days just riding around. I was blown away by the amount of camps and ppl I saw in my travels. I counted 37 camps all within 5 miles on a dirt road of mine. No doubt Colorado needs to make a change, they will not because of all the $$ they receive from hunters buying tags. I know I will not be back Beautiful country and no way as rugged or steep as Idaho. [/QUOTE]
