Colorado gmu 11 and 211

We were drawn for third season 11 and 211 deer. First time for me in CO and with a little research Axial Basin comes up a lot. I also hear that it is a very popular spot. We are staying in Meeker and I was wondering what the general consensus is and what about areas closer to Meeker. My friend and I donâ€™t mind hiking a little but we both have bad backs and knees. We both like hunting down hill with roads at both ends. Your comments are greatly appreciated.

Not much help on your question oldpops but welcome to the HuntingNut Very Happy

Maybe one of our members is familiar with that area.

Thanks Joe for the reply. I just figured everyone was out scouting or hunting this weekend and too busy to answer. I found a few sources of good info locally and between Google earth and my BLM maps I will certainly have plenty of area to hunt. I just don't like a lot of company when I hunt and it sounds like Axial Basin can be a war zone. I hooked up with an old buddy that moved to Meeker for about five years and then returned back home because the long cold winters. I spent about 3 hours with him today and we came up with a game plan. Hope I can post some photos when we get back.
