Guys, Im just starting my search for a good place to hunt Mulies this coming season. It'll be a first for me in CO but am really looking forward to it. Dont necessarily need a drop camp, but any advice would really be appreciated. Im going to bow hunt, unless theres a unit to gunhunt with 0 PP. Thanks!!

If you want to drop camp, contact Tenderfoot Outfitters, Fred Stinson. Good people to deal with.

Tenderfoot charges $1,500 per person. 8 days, 6 days hunting. They supply everything but personal gear & food. Check their website for all the details.
I have no connection to them, but have a fully guided hunt booked for 2016.

Lazy F Bar is probably the best deer guide service in the Gunnison valley but they don't do drop camps. All units in Gunnison take a couple preference points to draw an archery tag so think about that too, but you can get an outfitter to get you a landowner tag if you wanna pony up some cash.

Gunnison Country outfitters is a top notch outfitter in that area and they have nice drop camps.
Are you talking about Kendall?I went with a group several years ago with Tenderfoot Outfitters. It was Fred's first year (we did a drop camp) and his second (we stayed at his base camp). We had 1 person each year shoot an elk. Fred is a very nice fella. Wonder if Tal still works for him? There was another younger guy who ran a lot in the mountains.....literally.....I can't think of his name. AWWW the view of the castles is still very real to me.I also remember those "stairways" back to cabbage basin. Anybody else know those stairways?

My cousin and I did a drop hunt with tenderfoot. Fred put us in the middle of great elk country. Nothing like falling asleep in a tent to the sounds of elk bugling. we hunted with bows- If we hunted with rifle, we both could have filled bull tags. The weather was a little warm but we still found them. I may go back and spike tent it myself in a few years.
