Zone D-10 located in south-central Kern and north-western Los Angeles counties.
This area is a major urban population. Due to it being all private with the Tejon Ranch making up most of it, if you are willing to pay the fee, the hunting here can be reasonable. Due to the vast size of the ranch you rarely feel like you are hunting in a reserve.
