Hunters Can Apply For High Quality Mule Deer Hunts On Private Property, Near Meeker

MEEKER, Colo. – Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the Miller Creek Ranch in Meeker are offering big-game hunters an opportunity to apply for a limited number of private property, elk and mule deer hunts during certain hunting seasons during fall of 2015.

Interested hunters must submit a written application by 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 5, 2015 to:

Colorado Parks and Wildlife – Meeker Office
Attn: Bailey Franklin/Miller Creek Ranch Hunts
PO Box 1181, Meeker, CO 81641

The application can be found at: www.cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Hunting/MillerCreekRanchHuntApplication.pdf

Nine hunts will be available to hunters who have already drawn limited deer and elk licenses for Game Management Unit 23 during the 2015 big game hunting seasons. In addition, one public bull elk hunt will be available to any big game hunter that plans to purchase an unlimited, over-the-counter bull elk license for the third rifle season in 2015.

“This is a very rare, private land hunting experience,” said District Wildlife Manager Bailey Franklin. “We encourage sportsmen to take advantage of this chance to enjoy a free hunt on a private ranch in the White River Valley.”

The unique opportunity developed through a perpetual wildlife conservation easement agreement between Colorado Parks and Wildlife and landowners of the Miller Creek Ranch. As part of their efforts in a large-scale big game habitat protection, local wildlife managers reached an agreement with private landowners to allow limited public hunting access in perpetuity on the 3,100-acre ranch property, located in GMU 23.

Camo at the Capitol Slated for September 9

Camo at the Capitol

CaCorangeIf you hunt, fish or trap, and you want to keep the places, fish and wildlife and rights to do so in Michigan, make sure your legislators know it! Come to Camo at the Capitol to rally in defense of the rights to hunt, fish and trap!

We’ll be advocating for policies which:

  • Keep public lands in public hands! Public lands ensure the democracy of hunting, fishing and trapping by making sure we all have a place to do so. Lands purchased and/or managed with hunter, angler and trapper license dollars should be open for and managed for those purposes.
  • Crack down on poaching! Poachers steal the resources from all of us and jeopardize hunting rights by giving us all a bad name. A bill package to increase penalties for poaching elk, bear, moose, waterfowl, turkeys and eagles will be before the House Committee on Natural Resources. Let’s pack the room to make sure everyone knows that hunters are leading the charge to eliminate poaching!
  • Protect Great Lakes fisheries! Recent proposals to put cage culture aquaculture fish farms in the Great Lakes could negatively impact Great Lakes fisheries through effluent, disease and escapement. Let your legislators know that fish farms don’t belong in the Great Lakes!
  • Enhance private land hunting and trapping access! A bill to allow hunters with disabilities to hunt from personal mobility devices will be up in the Senate Committee on Outdoor Recreation, and we expect it will be amended to eliminate the unnecessary 150-yard hunting safety zone from buildings for trapping, archery and hound hunting. Let’s pack the committee room to let them know we support hunting access and private property rights!
