About Mesa Verde Outfitters
How We Got Here
Will Simon the owner of Mesa Verde Outfitters grew up chasing Blacktail Deer in the hills of Northern CA. After hunting giant Mule Deer and Elk in SW Colorado he quickly became hooked due to the game rich environment and the landscape for which to persue his passion. Our mission is to offer you an experience of a lifetime and to share and guide you in the passion and pursuite of big game.

The Lodge
Our lodge is 4,300 SQ feet and houses our dining facility and will provide you with excellent home cooked and carry out meals. The lodge also contains two large recreational areas with an HDTV and lounge. When you arrive back in camp you will be greeted to a clean house, fresh linens and a nicely made bed. Soak in the panoramic views and get ready to hunt!


The Experience
Our goal is to provide you with the biggest TROPHY animal of your life! We have many years of experience hunting in this area and our relationships with the local ranchers and farmers allows us to get you on some of the best private hunting ground managed for true trophy potential. It is equally important to us that you enjoy your entire stay with Mesa Verde Outfitters, not just the part where you harvest the animal. We are always open to new ways to enhance your trip while staying with us.

Big Game
We specialize in trophy mule deer and Elk. Between the genetics, the feed available, the shear volume of the herd and our quality management practices we believe our trophy potential rivals anywhere in the Western United States. Most of our ranches are strictly managed for those hunters looking for that once in a life time buck or bull. Our motto is if you're happy then we’re happy and we strive to accomplish that with each and every person. Our hunting properties are predominately in units 72/73, 74/741 and 71/711 in Montezuma and Dolores County Colorado.
