Park County Mule Deer is a DIY buck hunting property just south of Jefferson, Colorado. This property splits the dividing line of GMU 50 and 501, offering access in both units. All Colorado deer tags, for all seasons, are valid for both units giving you flexibility throughout the hunt. The ranch covers roughly 150 acres of private land but also shares a boundary with nearly 800 acres of accessible BLM land. The BLM is technically accessible by the public, but it isn't easy to reach without permission through private property due to the nearest public access point being over a mile hike away. Booking an adventure here puts you right at the doorstep of additional acreage without the hassle. To the north in GMU 501, the property also borders a large tract of Pike National Forest. This will be more readily accessible to the public, so expect additional hunting pressure on the public ground to the north - but additional access is never a bad thing! Michigan Creek runs through the property and acts as a natural dividing line between the main access point and the hill country beyond. A bridge is provided to cross the river, for those who'd rather not wade across. Check the Infinite Outdoors map for the location of the bridge after booking. Camping is welcome on the property but will be booked separately through HipCamp - see the FAQ's below for a direct link to make your camping reservation.

GMU 50 and 501 sit in the heart of South Park, one of Colorado's most recognized mule deer landscapes. Trophy quality in GMU 501 averages in the 150"–170" range with legitimate potential above 170", and five-year success rate averages run 55–65% across the rifle seasons - solid odds for a DIY hunter.

The property sits at the transition zone between open valley floor and broken hill country, which is exactly the terrain mature mule deer prefer. Michigan Creek winds through the property and serves as a reliable water source and natural focal point for locating deer, particularly during early archery and muzzleloader seasons. Rocky outcroppings and open meadows give hunters classic spot-and-stalk opportunities, with bucks most active along the creek bottom and bench edges at first and last light.

Reservation fees are due at the time of booking and are non-refundable. 50% of the outdoorsman fee will automatically process 2 weeks after Colorado Draw results post, or immediately upon booking if the reservation is made after draw results post. The remaining 50% will automatically process 1 month prior to the adventure.

For big game adventures, cancellations made prior to placing a deposit will be handled immediately with no penalty. If a cancellation is requested after a deposit has been placed, Infinite Outdoors will make every effort to reschedule the hunt for a different season or a future year. Refunds are not guaranteed once a deposit has been placed.

If there is a lapse in availability, please do not be discouraged to reach out to IO. All calendars are set and managed by landowners, and unavailability is set by them. However, IO is willing to reach out on your behalf, to check on available dates. Other reasons for unavailable dates include biologist recommended hunter/harvest quotas that landowners implement, as well as state season dates not being released.

You are not legally allowed to access the property, for any adventure, prior to your selected access day. If you try to access the property at all before your selected date(s), without prior approval from IO, you will be subject to trespassing and punishments therein.

After your hunt, you will be sent an automated Harvest Report. To assist Infinite Outdoors in maintaining the quality of properties - and continue to put conservation at the forefront - we require that the harvest report be completely filled out and returned. Failure to fill out the harvest report within 2 weeks of the hunt taking place will result in a $25 fine. If you are unsuccessful in filling your tag, Infinite Outdoors still needs to have that information provided to them. This is how we will make changes to future year's harvest quotas and continue to be the most well managed access and conservation platform in the country.
