Did not draw here in AZ for elk and was going to head up towards Durango for an over the counter archery tag. Have not hunted this area for more than 20 years and would appreciate some guidance. I use to live in Denver and have hunted the flat tops north to WY but not down on the Colorado/NM – not looking for a monster bull just some elk and a good time. Have two weeks to spend was figuring the two weeks before the end of the season. Last time hunted in the area was 1992 outside Durango in the wilderness area at a drop camp supplied by an outfitter – that may be an option too so a recommendation there would be helpful. Does not have to be Durango proper just using that as a mid-point – just has to be over the counter. Appreciate the assistance.

From what I've heard, the Durango area can be very good. I'll be hunting a unit(s) to the east of you. Can't wait!
