A hunt is considered officially over when your tag is filled or hunt days have expired. Filled hunters are welcome to stay in camp for total number of hunt days. Although Western Colorado Outfitters does not guarantee all guests their game, we feel each individual has a great chance of filling their tags. Our camps are also covered by a radio system for your safety, to be used in emergencies only. All hunts are fair chase in scenic Colorado. Hunts are conducted on the Gunnison National Forest. Western Colorado Outfitters is a permit holder for the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests and is an Equal Opportunity Service Provider.
There is no cell phone service in our area! Make sure you leave our number with anyone that needs to reach you with an emergency message. We will have radio contact each night with Base Camp while conditions permit.
Weight limit for pack-in camps is 65lbs of gear (army sized duffel )plus your sleeping bag, weapon and backpack. Please do not overpack. We will not pack excess gear.
If you have any special dietary needs please let us know beforehand. We can usually accomodate you if we know ahead of time. (no steak - only diets Michael )
