Unit 110
Colorado Hunting Guide — Pronghorn, Mule Deer
Unit 110 lies in El Paso County and covers about 623 square miles. Ground runs from 6,161 to 7,699 feet. CPW bounds it by Douglas-Elbert-El Paso Co. lines and U.S. 24 among others. CPW's harvest estimates put pronghorn success here as high as 35%. No federal land falls inside it, so every acre is a permission question. Check land status on a current map before you plan a route.

Where to Find Pronghorn in Unit 110
What CPW publishes for unit 110 is a boundary, not a pronghorn map. So the ground below is the unit's own and the read on where to start is ours, labelled as such. The unit lies in El Paso County. It runs to about 623 square miles.
The lines of the unit: Douglas-Elbert-El Paso Co. lines, U.S. 24 and CR 523 (Calhan Hwy.)
CPW has unit 110 bounded on the north by Douglas-Elbert-El Paso Co. lines; on the east by U.S. 24 and CR 523 (Calhan Hwy.); on the south by Colo. 94; on the west by I-25. Read it as a frame, not as a hint about animals. What it does give you is the way in: the rivers and highways you cross, and the divides that decide which drainage you end up in.
High ground inside the line: Vollmer Hill, Spruce Hill and Table Rock
Named high points inside the unit include Vollmer Hill at 7,699 feet, Spruce Hill at 7,674 feet, Table Rock at 7,465 feet, Rattlesnake Butte at 7,403 feet and Fremont Fort at 7,106 feet. None carries a public-land flag we trust, so settle the ownership question before you plan to stand on one. Pronghorn live in the open and trust their eyes, which is the whole problem.
Public ground to start from: Big Springs STL and Ramah SWA
CPW lists Big Springs STL and Ramah SWA inside this unit as ground open to public hunting. Each property sets its own restrictions, and the agency's page for it is where they are written down. Federal land covers about 0% of the unit on top of those.
Water in this unit
The water inside the unit line comes to 809 mapped stream reaches, 23 lakes, 522 stock tanks and 1 springs. On ground with that many tanks, knowing which two or three hold water in your season is the most useful thing a scouting trip can tell you.
The herd this unit belongs to: A-8
CPW does not manage pronghorn unit by unit. It manages them as data analysis unit A-8, and unit 110 is one piece of it. The rest of A-8 is unit 111, unit 118, unit 119, unit 123 and unit 124. Read a neighbour in the same herd before you read the state average — the herd, not the unit line, is what the agency is steering.
Reading the land status
Our ownership read for this unit is approximate — it comes out as Private / Other 100%, so treat it as a starting point and check a current land-status layer before you plan a route. A grid sample of the unit reads 6,161 to 7,583 feet, and named ground inside the line runs 6,529 to 7,699 feet — take 6,161 to 7,699 as the spread, because the sample is a grid and walks past summits. With 1,538 feet between the two ends, there is not much relief, so the animals move laterally rather than up and down.
Unit 110 terrain and land status
Measured from the unit boundary, not from the agency write-up
The lay of it
- 6,161–7,583 ft on a terrain sample , averaging 6,813 ft ; peaks can run higher.
- 623.3 sq mi inside the boundary.
Who owns the ground
- Private / Other — 100%
Roughly 0% is public. Carry a land-status layer anyway — these are area percentages, not a map of where the boundaries fall.
Water on the ground
- 522 tanks
- 1 springs
- 809 stream segments
- 23 lakes
Counts from mapping data, so this is how many exist, not how many hold water in a dry year. Sitting water only pays where you find fresh tracks.
Named features inside the unit
Glass from: Vollmer Hill (7,699 ft), Spruce Hill (7,674 ft), Table Rock (7,465 ft)
Holding ground: Big Springs STL, Ramah SWA
Every one of these was tested against the unit polygon before it went on the map. They are starting points, not agency recommendations.
How to Hunt Pronghorn in Unit 110
Pronghorn Success Rates
CPW's 2023 harvest estimates put pronghorn success in unit 110 at 35% — 298 animals taken by 851 hunters. The hunter count is large enough for the percentage to mean something and small enough that a good or bad year still moves it.
These are the agency's own printed figures for this unit, not a modelled estimate and not a state average. They describe one season, so check CPW's current harvest estimates before you read a trend into them.

Open in Draw Odds EngineCPW's 2026 draw recap for pronghorn in unit 110, by hunt code, with resident and nonresident kept apart because the two draw from different licence pools:
- AF110L1R — Rifle, 1st Season, Doe Only, resident: 447 applicants for 172 licences, 38.5% drawn, no preference points needed
- AM110O1R — Rifle, 1st Season, Buck Only, resident: 440 applicants for 99 licences, 22.5% drawn, 1 preference point needed
- AM110O1M — Muzzleloader, 1st Season, Buck Only, resident: 368 applicants for 290 licences, 78.8% drawn, no preference points needed
- AF110O1R — Rifle, 1st Season, Doe Only, resident: 358 applicants for 122 licences, 34.1% drawn, no preference points needed
Colorado runs a pure preference-point draw, so the point figure above is the requirement the agency published for that code in that year, not a forecast for the next one. There are 6 further code-and-residency combinations in the recap for this unit. Figures checked against CPW's own statistics pages on 2026-06-09.
