Description

Raftopoulos Ranches is a working cattle and sheep ranch situated in the heart of northwest Colorado. We own or control several thousand acres in areas 2 and 201. We provide first class guide and outfitting service with accommodations that are unsurpassed by anyone in the area. Our guides have lived in northwest Colorado most of their lives and hunted and guided the areas for many years. They know where the big ones run, and how to get them. Its not uncommon to see several 300+ BC bulls each day. The hunt occurs during the rut, which adds to an unforgettable experience. Success rate over the last 15 years has been 100% with most bulls from 300-350 BC rough score. 2006 average was 354 BC. We strive for a 1 guide per hunter ratio, but at times early in the season we may be 1 guide per 2 hunters. We have special rates available for friends and family members wishing to accompany a hunter. (Please call for availability)
