12 first-choice applicants for 150 tags
22 first-choice applicants for 150 tags (all residencies) in 2022, so every first-choice applicant drew and 128 tags went to the leftover draw. The 100% reflects low demand that year, and a code like this can flip the year demand catches up.
Years to draw on points: —
- NR Tags
- 150

First-choice nonresidents, standard draw; nonresidents capped at 25%. Success: all hunters in GMU 32, 2024.
Points Needed to Draw
Undersubscribed every year on file: 7–12 first-choice applicants for 150 tags, 2021–2022.
Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

How It Hunted, 2024
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| All of GMU 32 | 823 | 165 | 20% |
Across every license type in GMU 32, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 823 hunters and 165 elk taken in 2024, and 20% of them took an elk. Colorado's figures come from CPW's post-season hunter survey. CPW's 2025 report dropped the per-GMU table in favour of hunt-code rows, so the newest year shown here is 2024.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2022 draw, the latest on file, computed from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's published results (preference points, computed from published point-level pools). They are what happened in that draw, not a forecast. Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward. How we compute these.
