Above Timberline Deer Tag

[22250imp]

Yipee!! This year I drew a high altitude deer tag, unit 048. It includes 48,481,56, and 561. I have been in some of this country but just wondering if anybody else out there has done this hunt. And any advice welcomed.

Congrats on drawing that tag, that’s a good one.
Hopefully someone with direct experience in 048 chimes in but you’re definitely in for a fun (and probably leg-burning) season.

The Collegiate Peaks...CARDIO. Good luck!

Nice draw. In that terrain, slow down and let optics do the work. Good luck

Unit 48 above treeline isn’t easy country. Mule deer hang just below ridgelines early mornings. Your legs will matter more than your optics in that kind of terrain.

I have been around Princeton and Cottonwood pass country years ago mountain goat hunting. Some of that country is a little bit accessible with an ATV. Able to get up there anyways and then go. Saw a really pretty buck up by Mirror lake several years ago.
