Hunting on the Uncompahgre Plateau can be challenging, but rewarding. The plateau covers 2,300 square miles of terrain that consists of flat mesas bisected with deep, jagged canyons. Roads provide fairly good access to the plateau, however many of the canyons are only accessible by foot or horsebackmaking this property a superb base camp location. The log cabin provides an excellent place to stay warm and dry and the National Forest access off the back provides an excellent access point. The highest success rate for bulls in GMU 62 comes in the early seasons bow hunters and muzzleloader on the high ground, while later seasons find elk in the lower elevations and canyon bottoms. Mule deer numbers have stabilized in this Unit, with the opportunity to see mature bucks highly likely. Excellent hunting in the surrounding area for bear and turkey as well. This property has excellent public land access with hiking trails, equestrian trails, biking trails, and ATV trails nearby.
