buckee Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Here is a letter and maps for RT Elk Camp Colorado this October, along with a letter for everyone. The links under the maps, are to a bigger version of the map, that you can get printed off, if you like. (the bigger maps are definately more readable...LOL) Map Coming into Buena Vista Link to large version http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v336/buckee/member%20favours/LG_Colorado_RT_Camp.jpg Map leaving Buena Vista, and heading into RT ELK Camp Link to large version http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v336/buckee/member%20favours/LG_RT_ELK_CampColorado_LGphoto.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapper Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Re: ****RT ELK HUNT Colorado MAPS**** If everything goes right...Pete and I will be there and maybe bringing a pop-up camper. That will leave some extra space in Steve's tents! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phaseolus (BeanMan) Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Re: ****RT ELK HUNT Colorado MAPS**** I've got a question for Steve. Although my elk hunt will occur during 4th season I hope to be able to show up and help out . I'll bring my packframe, knives, saw, etc. My question is will there be horses available to pack out any lucky persons kill. That would greatly increase the range a person could hunt. I looked at the 7.5' maps last night and you all better be getting in shape, you won't like yourself if you don't. BeanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VermontHunter Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Re: ****RT ELK HUNT Colorado MAPS**** Guess, it's a good thing I quit smoking.... ,,, I've been hitting the BOWFLEX pretty good, but I guess I'd better get out in the woods and start some hill climbing.... OH YEAH,, that's right Im there for the fishing.. Naaa just kidding, I'll give any lucky hunter a hand getting thier kill out of the woods...

silvertip_co Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Re: ****RT ELK HUNT Colorado MAPS**** I have BLM topo maps for the group to share, I bought them at the BLM office in Gunnison. I think I have 6 of them. You can oredr them on line for the same 4.00 I paid. go tot Colorado BLM in google and oreder them up if you need them ahead. I hope to get more maps for you at the Leadville office in Sept when I go to Elkatraz( you can google that too if you are curious). Best wishes.

silvertip_co Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Re: ****RT ELK HUNT Colorado MAPS**** Steve in looking at your map, the dot seems further in than Dawn and I were. I am concerned about gettign my 19' trailer in that far, as the place we turned around the trail was pretty rugged. Can you give us some cooordinates so I can have a satellite look at it???
