Find the official Colorado property record before asking to hunt.

Colorado's official Property Tax Map and public parcel dataset aggregate parcel geometry and assessment attributes supplied by local governments.

A parcel, tax, or deed record is not permission to enter the land or proof that one named person controls every hunting right.

The Colorado path

Use the record for orientation—not authorization.

Use the statewide map to identify the county and parcel number, follow the assessor URL when supplied, and confirm the record with the county before approaching anyone for permission.

What you can verify

Map lookupAddress searchOwner-name searchParcel-ID search
Administration
Mixed state and local
Record authority
County assessors remain authoritative for parcel-specific assessment records; the state map and dataset are an aggregation, not a title registry.
Owner-name access
Owner-name availability varies by county, municipality, or portal.
Freshness
State dataset metadata was updated in March 2026; county contribution dates and completeness vary, so check dateReceived and the linked assessor record.

What still needs checking

The state disclaims completeness, accuracy, and timeliness. Aggregated parcel lines are not surveys, and owner fields do not prove current title, hunting-right authority, legal access, or permission.

Official-use restriction: Use owner fields as a narrow research lead only; do not republish, profile, or bulk-collect personal names or addresses.

A current owner, co-owner, tenant, property manager, trust representative, or hunting-rights lessee may be the relevant decision-maker. Ask directly and do not treat silence, a map label, or a prior invitation as approval.

From record to respectful request

Do not turn public records into mass outreach.

Research one relevant property, use a lawful and respectful channel, explain the narrow hunt you want to discuss, and make “no” easy.

1. Recheck the property and county

Confirm that the record belongs to the parcel you meant to research and reopen the live source near the time of contact. Do not navigate by generalized tax-map lines in the field.

2. Ask who controls hunting access

A name or tax-mailing record can begin the inquiry; it cannot settle co-ownership, occupancy, management, an existing lease, or a separate transfer of hunting rights.

3. Define the exact request

Name the hunters, species, lawful method, dates, scouting, equipment, parking, entry, boundaries, guests, and retrieval plan. Do not enter first and ask later.

4. Use the official written record

Requirements vary. Open the Colorado written-permission requirements, then confirm every current state, local, and property-specific rule and form.
