Try the castles. Sraight north out of Gunnison. Sum good hunting in that area. A lot less people to. Theres one out fitter that hunts that area. Theres a few out fitters that hunt the soap creek area. And a qiute a few hunters to. Hunted the castles last year. We had a good hunt.

Is that north then LEFT off 135 ???

I have 54 tags too for third rifle elk. Have only ever seen 54 from my many many trips to 55.

Go north out of Gunnison 22 miles. Along Ohio Creek Road. There is a trail head.(Swampy Pass) Thats were U go in from. The only outfitter that I no in there is. Tenderfoot Outfitters.

How close can you get to the wilderness with a truck via swampy pass? Me and my father plan on wall tenting it close to the wilderness so we can walk in every day or possibly spike out for a night or 2. Weve been debating rainbow lake, swampy pass, mill creek and soap creek--Is the swampy pass road in decent shape?? Do you hunt the national forest or do you go into the wilderness?

U can only get to the trail head at swampy pass. I have not ben there yet this year. To see the road conditions. But county road 721 (soap creek) Has that commissary hill. Which it gets very bad with a little rain or snow. U wont pull a trailer up there. Thats 4 sure. And U better have chains.
