Another non-resident and myself are looking to bowhunt in units 23 and 24 (White River or Routt NF). Can anyone tell me if we need to apply for licenses or buy them online or even bowhunt on public land in these units?

Archery licenses in Units 23 and 24?
Whats up homie!!! I was born in DC!
Gonna have to help out a bit more. When are you planning on hunting? Next year I hope... b/c I pretty sure there are no tags left for this year. Archery is long over, and though you can use a bow during rifle seasons, they look to be all out of leftover tags as well! (shows only private land tags still avail)

Now next year, your best bet is to go ahead and draw them, which can be done much easier on-line at

For 23 & 24 they are limited so you will ned to apply. They are pretty popular units so you probably will not have a chance for any leftovers in there.
Of course our season license structuresa re changing a bit next year I would suggest that you request the bruchure and everything else you can from the DOW and then you will get them as soon as they come out.

23 and 24 are draw for bow. However it seems that three years ago that they were included in the OTC tag.
Like HeavyC said, check the regs when they come out next year to make sure. The areas south of 23 and 24 tend to be more popular anyway.
A PDF version of the regs are here:

Non-Rez license
Archery season is over and the elk are becoming gun-shy.
I've been living in Colorado for about 4 years and have just cracked the code on how to put in for draw tags. It can cost you an arm and a leg for non-residency tags and even then you are not guaranteed to score.
The areas you are looking at are pretty good for elk, but I would look at putting a tag in for Buena Vista and Salida area as well.
Archery season starts fairly early, put in for your draw area no later than the 1st of April.
Good Luck, happy hunting
