Ya I went on to see if I could do anything and saw that message.

 

How much is the tag/license? Isn't it around $700?

 

Is there any reason to get a tag today or can we wait until we get there?

 

I believe it is $601. I think that gets you tag, hunting license, and fishing license.

 

No reason really. I just want to have everything ready. Knowing my luck I'd forgot some paperwork and would have to scramble getting things faxed out lol.

 

For over the counter you can wait a awhile no rush I am trying to get a left over doe tag so I can shoot two deer this year and only so many are available is why I'm trying today.

I do recommend getting your tag before you come though as I would hate for someone to travel so far and find out they forgot something and wasn't able to purchase a tag once here. Its more of just piece of mind knowing you can hunt once here. But its up to you. If you know you have everything required to purchase a tag once here thats your decision

 

If you are planning on purchasing a license, be sure to have the following:
•
Your driver's license/state issued identification card,

•
Proof of hunter education: hunter education card​ or a Colorado hunting license with verified hunter education,

•
Your social security number (anyone 12 years of age and older are required to give their social security number, if not already on file),

•
Your customer identification number (CID), if you have previously purchased a license in Colorado,

•
Proof of residency​, if you are planning to purchase a resident license,

•
A prioritized list of hunt codes for licenses you are interested in.

 

All the stuff is the same as on the mule deer tag that I drew this year then right?

 

Yes sir should be the exact same stuff.

 

Well its ten thirty and still down.

 

I got through on the phone and an automated recording says the website is temporarily down and please keep trying then hangs up on you. LOL

Now the error message says 11:30 Moutain time

 

dang well i hope you end up getting through. I may be sticking with just my mule deer tag. ran in to a hiccup with buying our house (hiccup cause by the sellers) and long story short, it cost me $3500 bucks. Not thrilled but after running the numbers, I'm glad i still am able to come.

 

Pat sorry to hear that. I hope it all works out where you can swing the elk tag too

 

Ok the site seems to bo working now. I put in for a left over doe whitetail tag for my area here around home and purchased a resident either sex archery elk tag. I did not have to put in anything about the area. I believe you can hunt in any of the OTC valid units as long as you have the OTC tag.

 

So just purchase an otc tag and I'll be good to go?

 

Yes - OTC Either Sex Elk - ARCHERY tag allows you to hunt any OTC Archery elk unit.

 

Yes sir should be able to. Its less hectic for me and I get to skip a lot of steps because my information is saved with them. But all I did was click on purchase online, put in my name and information, clicked on over the counter, archery elk either sex, drop down menu for quanity of tags, (1 was the only option), and put in payment info

Printed of my Trasnaction number that describes what I purchased

 

And...
There are some leftover Bear - Rifle tags for unit 45 for Sept 2nd-30th...just sayin'

...but does not appear to be any archery bear leftover...
