Colorado Bear Unit 71

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Colorado Game Management Unit 71.

Unit 71 in southwestern Colorado hands bear hunters a rare split: the glacial, 13,000-foot volcanic spine of the Cimarron Range dropping fast into the sage and Gambel oak benches of the lower Uncompahgre, where acorn mast becomes the major draw once it falls in early autumn. We map the 7,500 to 9,000 foot oak and serviceberry brush, the perennial Cimarron Creek forks and Little Cimarron water, and the two-thirds public ground threaded by choked private inholdings near Owl Creek Pass. The pack breaks it into Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, plus a one-page Essential Recon summary. Study it on our interactive map, then export the points you choose to onX or your favorite hunting map.

How this data was collected

Data Hunt Guide aggregates publicly available sighting reports from across the web (social media, hunting forums, harvest reports, and trail-camera shares) and uses a proprietary algorithm to identify high-activity zones (hotspots) within each unit. Our team verifies coordinates manually before publication.
