    Elk hunting colorado clothing gear.

    The anti perspirant helps, boot dryers and a 2nd pair of boots. I haven't tried the suggestion to bring a second pair of socks and change them out in the field but makes sense.

    Colorado Folks- Where to move to in western Colorado?

    Metro Denver housing is too high and tired of the traffic. In a few years I'll be moving to the western Colorado. Housing prices is a main concern. Some of the areas I'm looking at are Cortez, Delta, Naturita, Montose, Grand Junction or other? Recommendations needed and why.
