ATTENTION HUNTERS 

In order to ensure quality wildlife and wildlife habitat in the Bosque del Oso State Wildlife Area, Colorado Parks & Wildlife has ongoing timber management applications. There will be no timber work during the antlered elk hunts, but antlerless elk hunters may encounter forestry practices and associated vehicular traffic. Timber treatment habitat practices will be limited to the hours between 9:00 A.M. until 3:00 P.M. to lessen impact to hunters during periods of higher hunter or wildlife activity.

We apologize for any inconvenience but seasonal conditions and budgetary mandates dictate that timber management practices to improve elk and deer habitat begin as soon as practical.

Thank you for your cooperation, courtesy and support for dynamic wildlife management on your Bosque del Oso State Wildlife Area
