Spent 14 days hunting 181 and got my tag soup for deer and elk. Saw lots of deer and hardly any elk.

The success percentage for these two unit, for all manners of take is only 5%.
During the last 20 years, the elk herd has been reduced by over 50%, from nearly 9500 elk to now, 4700.
The "hay- days" of these units was in the 1990s when there were over 300,000 elk in Colorado and prior to CWD.
There are now, 3 times the hunters because of it close approximation to Denver and the CPW still offers too many cow license.
