Colorado Deer Unit 86

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Colorado Game Management Unit 86.

Colorado Unit 86 is defined by extreme vertical contrast: the Sangre de Cristo Mountains rise in one near-continuous escarpment off the Wet Mountain Valley floor, gaining 5,000 to 6,000 feet in just a few horizontal miles and topping 14,000 at Humboldt Peak. For deer hunters that means reading the transition band between valley bench (near 7,800 feet) and the high timber, where Gambel oak, aspen, and snowmelt drainages like Colony, Willow, and Grape Creek shape movement, while much of the flat valley stays private. Our pack covers it all: Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, and a one-page Essential Recon summary. Study the unit 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.
