Colorado elk hunt code

E-E-211-W1-R

Either-sex elk · Ranching for Wildlife rifle · Unit 211 · List A

In the 2026 draw, 93 hunters put E-E-211-W1-R as their 1st choice for 8 licenses. Residents needed 20 points (25% of applicants at 20 drew); no nonresidents applied.

Point creep is real here: residents needed 15 points in 2022 and 20 in 2026. Expect it to take more next year.

It is a hybrid-draw hunt: 1 license was drawn at random by residents with 5 or more points who listed it 1st — and they lose all their points.

“2nd choice” means every 1st-choice applicant drew and licenses went on to later choices. “Leftover” means licenses remained after the primary draw. The secondary draw (June) also re-offers unpaid and returned licenses; “unsold” ones went to the leftover sale in August. Secondary-draw data starts in 2021. A percentage is the share of applicants at the cutoff level who drew.
