Burns are great places to hunt, new vegetation growth makes it prime areas for game to feed. I wouldn't shy away from a burn area if you can get a tag. I've been hunting a burn area for several years, and it has been very good to my group. Before the burn it was pretty much a sterile forest with very little big game, and those there were just passing through to migrate to food.

Just get an elk tag and go hunting if you're coming to Colorado, and worry about the mule deer later.
