I am not sure this applies to seniors (65 and over). The state web site
says that for anyone (18-64) who wishes to purchase a hunting or fishing
license must have a habitat stamp.

*CPW Commission requires a valid hunting or fishing license
to access all State Wildlife Areas and CPW-leased State
Trust Lands*

DENVER – A valid hunting or fishing license will be required for
everyone 18 or older attempting to access any State Wildlife Area
or State Trust Land leased by Colorado Parks and Wildlife,
beginning July 1.
The rule change was adopted unanimously April 30 by the Colorado
Parks and Wildlife Commission.
“By policy, state wildlife areas are acquired with hunter and
angler dollars, and are intended specifically to provide wildlife
habitat and wildlife-related recreation,” Southeast Regional
Manager Brett Ackerman told the commission at its meeting. “This
rule is aimed at curtailing non-wildlife-related use of these
properties.
At the meeting, Ackerman presented examples from across the state
of the increasing use of state wildlife areas inconsistent with
their purpose, including set up of temporary residences, vehicular
use on big game winter range, vandalism, and other uses
detrimental to wildlife and wildlife-related uses.
“There’s certainly an impact on staff and resources, potential
public health impact, degradation of habitat and displacement of
wildlife,” Ackerman told commissioners. “There is a pattern of
non-wildlife related issues we’re seeing out there.”
Beginning on July 1, 2020, anyone entering a state wildlife area
or state trust land leased by CPW must hold either a valid hunting
or fishing license in Colorado.
Ackerman emphasized that, “As with all new regulations, especially
one as far reaching as this, our policy is to first educate.
Especially when talking to constituent users of state wildlife
areas, we want to help people understand why we’re taking this
action. We’re not seeking to catch people off guard and write them
tickets. We want to curtail non-wildlife use of these properties
and return them to their original intended purpose.”
