[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 3625939, member: 41777"] Toothpick, altitude may be your nemesis. If you can get there a day or two early, that would help alot. Once you get into CO, drink as much water as you can stand especially if start getting a headache. There's a prescription for altitude adjusting but don't recall the name. If you're concerned about the weather, good for you as there's no idea what it will be like - sunny and 80 or snowing and below zero. I'd check right before leaving to get some idea of a range for expectations. Layer your clothes and leave cotton at home! Rain gear was always in my daypack too along with a lightweight tarp and some paracord. Emergency lighter or matches are comforting to have, just in case. In Pagosa, you need to try a green chile burger at Bear Creek Saloon - used to be very good but it's been a few years since we sold our cabin in the area. Post any other elk hunting questions you might have. I spent 25 of the last 30 years in CO hunting elk, mule deer and antelope. Not saying I'm good at it but done it quite a few times! [/QUOTE]
