Colorado Elk Unit 39

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Colorado Game Management Unit 39.

Unit 39 hands elk hunters a rugged paradox: wide-open South Platte parks that pinch into the granite-dome maze of the Lost Creek Wilderness, where elevations climb from 6,500 feet near Bailey to above 12,400 feet on Bison Peak in the Tarryalls. This is creek-and-snowmelt country, with the South Platte, Tarryall, Goose, and Lost Creek running perennially, and elk working aspen-edge benches and gambel oak browse between bedding timber. Our data pack covers 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.
