Big Game Hunting Guide Services in Central Colorado

The Everett Ranch took root in the 1880s. We are the 4th and 5th generations operating the ranch.

The 70,000 acres of prime hunting habitat ranges in elevation from 8,000 to 11,000 feet, from alpine meadows and aspen covered ridges, to dark timber and deep canyons.

Our "cow camp" (hunting camp) is located in the Ute Trail area northeast of Salida, Colorado.

Ute Trail Guide Service has a long hunting tradition in the heart of the Colorado Rockies. Our goal is to provide clients with a memorable and successful hunting experience. Guided hunts are available for elk, mule deer, and bighorn sheep (some of the biggest in the state). Choose to hunt archery, muzzleloading, or rifle seasons.

See guide service rates.

We also offer some of the best trout fishing in central Colorado.
