Colorado season changes

[CoMulies]

80/20 should be the bare minimum even for low demand hunts, and more like 90/10 for high demand. Colorado gets absolutely hammered. Every other state puts their residents first, Colorado needs to do the same. If you want to hunt it that bad, move here.

Regarding calling or visiting a CPW office....

They don't even know their own regulations!
As someone who lives in Grand Junction, they are terrible. The only people who actually know the laws are the wildlife officers, unfortunately they are spread so thin they don't have time to help people. The office staff is about as useful as the person behind the Walmart counter.

Any updates to add to this forum? I see that CPW met last week for 2 days. I didnt see or hear anything yet

Not really last meeting was a commission meeting, currently you need to look at the BGSS Meetings for the future 5 year structure

I noticed CPW has the season dates through 2026 posted. I thought these were set up in 5 year increments?

That looks like they were recommendations vs what was adopted by the commission. The 2nd rifle season for instance in that recommendation doesn't line up with what is published for 2024.
