NE CO Grouse Questions

[bunting...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am new to posting here but not new to CoBirds. I am about to take a trip to Walden and Craig in search of Greater Sage Grouse and Sharp Tail Grouse. I have both Hugh Kingery Birding Colorado and Colorado Bird Trail booklet which give me good directions to two STG leks, one north of Hayden, Moffat County, on county road 80 at the second rise and the other south on Twenty Mile Road. The GSG lek I have directions to is at Delany Butts in Jackson County. Are these leks still active? I know from last year with the Gunnison Grouse and Lesser Prairie Chickens this can change.  I have also read about Coalmount but I don’t know how to get to it. You can send me this information at Bunting...@gmail.com  or just post a reply here, which every works.

Thanks, Brian Johnson, Englewood CO.
