Mule Deer Hunting in Unit 27

Where to Find Mule Deer in Unit 27

CPW draws an exact line around unit 27 and says nothing about where the mule deer stand inside it. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Grand, Routt and Jackson counties. It runs to about 197 square miles.

The lines of the unit: U.S. 40, Colo. 9 and Colorado River

CPW has unit 27 bounded on the north and east by U.S. 40; on the south by Colo. 9 and Colorado River; on the west by Canyon Creek and Muddy Creek-Yampa River divide (Gore Range divide). That is a legal description, not a habitat map. 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: Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain

Named high points inside the unit include Baker Mountain at 9,802 feet and Tyler Mountain at 9,372 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Mule deer bed on broken ground with a view and feed on the brush below it.

Holding ground: Gore Pass, Muddy Pass and Barber Basin

Below them sit Gore Pass at 9,537 feet, Muddy Pass at 8,608 feet, Barber Basin at 8,270 feet, Eastern Gulch at 7,675 feet and Slaughter Gulch at 7,667 feet. These are the folds worth watching, and the ones other hunters walk past on the way to somewhere steeper. Pick the one with the least road on its upwind side.

Public ground to start from: Middle Park STL, Milk Creek STL and Windy Ridge STL

CPW lists Middle Park STL, Milk Creek STL and Windy Ridge STL 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 40% of the unit on top of those.

The herd this unit belongs to: D-9

CPW does not manage mule deer unit by unit. It manages them as data analysis unit D-9, and unit 27 is one piece of it. The rest of D-9 is unit 18, unit 28, unit 37, unit 181 and unit 371. So the objective behind your tag was written for that whole area, and a neighbouring unit in the same herd is a fairer comparison than the statewide figure.

Reading the land status

Our ownership read for this unit is approximate — it comes out as National Forest 60%, Private / Other 32% and State Trust 8%, 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 7,463 to 10,373 feet, averaging 8,550 — a sample rather than a survey, so read the ends as approximate. There is enough relief to separate summer range from winter range.

How to Hunt Mule Deer in Unit 27

CPW's own harvest estimates put mule deer success in unit 27 at archery 45% and rifle 12%. That is an ordinary spread for this country, and it rewards whoever scouted. The plan: glass the broken edges at first light, then sit still and keep glassing the same ground.

Glassing from Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain

Take a position on one of Baker Mountain (9,802 ft) and Tyler Mountain (9,372 ft) and be on it before light. Work the morning with the air falling away from you, then accept that by mid-morning the wind has reversed and the plan has to change with it. A tripod is worth more here than another hour of walking. On the rut hunts, late-season hunts put bucks with doe groups and moving in daylight.

Timing the season: Sep, Oct, Nov

Season normals here run Sep 71/35°F, Oct 57/24°F and Nov 41/15°F. By Nov the lows are around 15°F, and the first hard storm after that moves animals off the high ground — a late tag is a bet on that storm arriving. Precipitation runs about 1.4 in. in Sep, 1 in. in Oct and 0.9 in. in Nov, and the graded gravel in this unit turns greasy wet.

Where unit 27 sits inside D-9

Across D-9, CPW's 2023 mule deer success runs 23% in unit 18, 21% in unit 37, 15% in unit 27, 15% in unit 28 and 14% in unit 371. That puts unit 27 behind 2 of the 5 other units in the herd. If the draw lets you choose, unit 18 carried the better number in the same herd — check its tag count before you read that as an easier hunt.

The way in: U.S. 40 and Colo. 9

We have no road inventory for this unit, so the only routes we can name are the ones CPW draws the boundary with: U.S. 40 and Colo. 9. Those are its edges, not its interior — useful because they are where you leave the pavement, and useless for telling you what the inside is like. Pick the edge nearest the country you mean to hunt and work in from it on foot, rather than driving the perimeter looking for a way through.

A first plan from the pins on this page

The map above marks Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain as places to see from, and Gore Pass, Muddy Pass, Barber Basin and Middle Park STL as ground to watch. Each pin is a named feature verified to fall inside the unit line, not a spot anyone has hunted. Take the pair you can reach on one road and treat the rest as a second trip.

What a day here costs you

197 square miles is more country than a week will cover, so pick one drainage and learn it rather than driving the unit. The nearest services are at Kremmling, about 12 miles out, which is an hour of your morning each way if you sleep there. The ground is gentle enough that the pack-out is a distance problem rather than a climbing one. Decide the night before where you will be at first light, and go there in the dark.

What we can't tell you

Some of the ground named above carries no land-status flag we trust, so check ownership on a current layer before you hunt it.

Colorado rules that decide your day

Summarised from CPW regulations. They change — read the current regulations and your permit-tag before you hunt.

Legal shooting hours

Big game may be taken from half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset.

Motorized retrieval

Colorado has no general off-road retrieval allowance. Travel stays on designated routes, so plan to pack every animal out on your back or with stock. Check the forest or BLM travel map for the roads that are actually open in hunting season.

Tagging

Validate and attach your carcass tag before the animal is moved, and keep evidence of sex attached until the carcass reaches your home or a processor.

Leaving meat

Abandoning edible meat is illegal. CPW counts the four quarters and the loins.

Where you may not shoot

Occupied structures — No discharging a firearm within 50 yards of a developed campsite, and never toward an occupied building.
Roads — No shooting from or across a public road, and no shooting from a motor vehicle.

Mule Deer: where to put the shot

Broadside or quartering away, on the back edge of the front leg about a third of the way up the body.

Shots to refuse

Nothing behind or overlapping the animal you picked.
Your maximum range is the farthest you have shot a three-shot group into a paper plate from the rest you are carrying.
Pass the shot you are talking yourself into.

Plan the carry: roughly 40– 120 lb of boned-out meat, before head and hide — two large coolers. ProHunt planning estimate, not an agency figure.

CPW's 2023 harvest estimates put mule deer success in unit 27 at 15% — 82 animals taken by 555 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.

Archery — 45% success, 25 taken by 56 hunters
Rifle — 12% success, 51 taken by 432 hunters

CPW's 2026 draw recap for mule deer in unit 27, by hunt code, with resident and nonresident kept apart because the two draw from different licence pools:

DM027O2R — Rifle, 2nd Season, Buck Only, resident: 428 applicants for 156 licences, 36.4% drawn, no preference points needed
DM027O3R — Rifle, 3rd Season, Buck Only, resident: 351 applicants for 129 licences, 36.8% drawn, no preference points needed

DF027O3R — Rifle, 3rd Season, Doe Only, resident: 192 applicants for 32 licences, 16.7% 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.

Elk Hunting in Unit 27

Unit 27 lies in Grand, Routt and Jackson counties and covers about 197 square miles. Ground runs from 7,463 to 10,373 feet. CPW bounds it by U.S. 40 and Colo. 9 among others. CPW's harvest estimates put elk success here as high as 20%. Federal land covers about 40% of it. Check land status on a current map before you plan a route.

Where to Find Elk in Unit 27

CPW draws an exact line around unit 27 and says nothing about where the elk stand inside it. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Grand, Routt and Jackson counties. It runs to about 197 square miles.

The lines of the unit: U.S. 40, Colo. 9 and Colorado River

CPW has unit 27 bounded on the north and east by U.S. 40; on the south by Colo. 9 and Colorado River; on the west by Canyon Creek and Muddy Creek-Yampa River divide (Gore Range divide). Read it as a frame, not as a hint about animals. Those features are what you will check against the map all week, and the divides among them are the ones that matter.

High ground inside the line: Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain

Named high points inside the unit include Baker Mountain at 9,802 feet and Tyler Mountain at 9,372 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Elk want timber to bed in and open ground to feed on, within a short walk of each other.

Holding ground: Gore Pass, Muddy Pass and Barber Basin

Below them sit Gore Pass at 9,537 feet, Muddy Pass at 8,608 feet, Barber Basin at 8,270 feet, Eastern Gulch at 7,675 feet and Slaughter Gulch at 7,667 feet. That is the low country of the unit — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Pick the one with the least road on its upwind side.

Public ground to start from: Middle Park STL, Milk Creek STL and Windy Ridge STL

The herd this unit belongs to: E-7

CPW does not manage elk unit by unit. It manages them as data analysis unit E-7, and unit 27 is one piece of it. The rest of E-7 is unit 15. That matters twice over: the population objective and the licence numbers are set for the whole area, and the animals move across unit lines inside it without noticing them.

How to Hunt Elk in Unit 27

CPW's own harvest estimates put elk success in unit 27 at archery 4%, muzzleloader 20% and rifle 12%. That is an ordinary spread for this country, and it rewards whoever scouted. The plan: find the feed, find the timber it backs onto, then watch the seam between them at the edges of the day.

Glassing from Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain

Take a position on one of Baker Mountain (9,802 ft) and Tyler Mountain (9,372 ft) and be on it before light. Work the morning with the air falling away from you, then accept that by mid-morning the wind has reversed and the plan has to change with it. Glass the edges first, then the shaded timber, then the edges again as the light goes. On the rut hunts, September bugling works where you can get above a drainage and let the thermals carry sound downhill.

Timing the season: Sep, Oct, Nov

Where unit 27 sits inside E-7

Across E-7, CPW's 2023 elk success runs 10% in unit 27 and 9% in unit 15. Unit 27 is the best of them on that measure, which usually means fewer tags rather than more animals. Success inside one herd moves with tag numbers and season length as much as with animals, so read the licence count alongside it.

The way in: U.S. 40 and Colo. 9

We have no road inventory for this unit, so the only routes we can name are the ones CPW draws the boundary with: U.S. 40 and Colo. 9. Those are its edges, not its interior — useful because they are where you leave the pavement, and useless for telling you what the inside is like. Park on the boundary and walk; a unit you can only enter from its rim rewards whoever is willing to leave the truck at the rim.

A first plan from the pins on this page

The map above marks Baker Mountain and Tyler Mountain as places to see from, and Gore Pass, Muddy Pass, Barber Basin and Middle Park STL as ground to watch. Each pin is a named feature verified to fall inside the unit line, not a spot anyone has hunted. Walk between two of them rather than driving between four, and you will learn more in a day.

What a day here costs you

197 square miles is more country than a week will cover, so pick one drainage and learn it rather than driving the unit. The nearest services are at Kremmling, about 12 miles out, which is an hour of your morning each way if you sleep there.

Occupied structures — No discharging a firearm within 50 yards of a developed campsite, and never toward an occupied building.

Elk: where to put the shot

Broadside or quartering away, on the back edge of the front leg about a third of the way up the body. That is lungs, and on a quartering-away angle it picks up the far shoulder.

Shots to refuse

No straight-on and no straight-away shots. An elk's chest is deep and the margin is small.
Nothing standing behind or overlapping the animal you picked. A pass-through kills the elk behind it too.
Your maximum range is the farthest you have put three shots in a paper plate off the sticks you are actually carrying. Not the farthest you have ever hit anything.
Scope on 3–4x. A herd fills a 12x field of view and you lose the animal you picked.

Identification:On an antlerless tag, legal means no antler of any kind through the skin. A spike looks exactly like a cow until it turns its head. If you can't see the head, don't shoot.

Plan the carry: roughly 150– 220 lb of boned-out meat, before head and hide — two to four large coolers, plus bagged ice from town. ProHunt planning estimate, not an agency figure.
