Kentucky Deer Hunting 2011
Jay Hollingsworth, Don Ator, Charlie Hinton, John Davis, Mark Welch and I went to Colorado this year for Colorado’s Third Elk Season. We hunted from a cabin located at 8,500 feet south of Glenwood Springs and west of Carbondale, Colorado. The cabin was located on 160 acres of private land with BLM and Forest Service lands immediately adjacent. Nearby ridge tops were 10,000 to 11,000 feet above sea level. All six of us bought bull tags. In addition, John and Mark bought mule deer tags. It snowed 18 inches opening day. Elk sign was scarce but mule deer seemed to be everywhere. We found out later that the snow had driven the elk down to the valley floor and that 60 head or so were comfortably grazing on the public golf course in Glenwood! Both John and Mark were able to fill their deer tags but no elk were killed. Despite that, the scenery was worth the price of admission and we had a marvelous time. Some might say we had a senior Boy Scout camping experience with no running water let alone hot showers, zero degree temperatures, burning aspen log fires that constantly seem to require more fuel, a very chilly outhouse, and ice cycles added to the bourbon! We ate extremely well, enjoyed each other’s company, and share memories of mule deer, bull moose, bear, and mountain lions.
