Tim,
  Have a great time and the best of luck on those Mule Deer.
   You guys have me missing the mountains, this is the first time in 35 years I will miss an Elk season in Colorado. I will be there next year (as a nonresident).

Have a fun, safe and successful trip. Your going to my home area.  I lived in Nucla, Montrose and Telluride throughout parts of my youth. I even killed a nice 6X6 bull just outside of the Black Canyon National Park with my bow back in 1993. Enjoy and take plenty of pics.

Well, we finally made it to our hunting spot late today.  It was a long but wonderful day.  We made it into Gunnisom around 9:30 for a wonderful breakfast.  Following breakfast we headed west to the Black Canyon of Gunnison.   Wow, what an incredible experience.  

We got to our home around 4 and quickly ran out to hang a few stands.  Problem was bucks were everywhere!  We did see a few big ones, but just couldn't get a good photo for you folks.  Here are a few pics from the evening.  We will be on stand at day break!     :jumper:

Good luck Tim!

Biggest deer I ever saw in my life was just west of Gunnison, walked across US50 in front of my truck out by the first Blue Mesa bridge, his rack was 30" wide if it was an inch...what a brute he was.

The Sidewalk Cafe still open?

Good luck to you boys!  Those look like some great deer.

So Tim, is that the same Black Canyon where the longbows that are so popular out there come from? You may have to investigate    :D

What a great trip.  A dream hunt for sure.  Good luck to all!  Can't wait for the updates.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
