Hunting in Colorado can be an excellent recreational pastime, but hunters new to Colorado should be cautious, especially during the changing seasons. Colorado springs and falls can easily trap a hunter by early or late snowstorms bringing several feet of snow in just hours, and hunters can quickly become injured by loose rock or simply getting lost. Altitude is a major factor to remember when hunting. Altitude can easily affect health ad the ability to move quickly.
Hunters seeking big game should remember to bring a survival kit and water, and should dress in layers. High country hunters, especially those hiking into heavy wilderness need to watch weather carefully and look for campsites and escape routes in case of sudden storms. Keeping these things in mind will make your hunting experience on Colorado land a much more memorable one.
