Mesa Verde Country®: Hunting Seasons & License Info

	Any person 12 years or older may obtain a hunting license in Colorado. Anyone born after January 1, 1949 must have a current hunter education certificate before applying for a license. This Hunter's Education certificate must be carried with the hunter while in the field. Hunters ages 12-15 must be accompanied by an adult who has passed the hunter safety course. A Big Game Hunting Statistics book, Colorado Outdoors Magazine, and a Big Game Management Unit Map are all available from Colorado Outdoors, 6060 Broadway, Denver, CO 80216, (303) 297-1192. Detailed information on hunting seasons and license applications is available from the Colorado Division of Wildlife.
