Elk and mule deer thrive in this unit, which almost surrounds Fort Carson Military Reservation (Unit 591) and includes 14,114-foot Pikes Peak, consisting of more than 200 sq. miles of Pike National Forest, BLM land and state property. Terrain varies from high mountains above timberline to flat and mostly private antelope lowlands.

Depending on weather and timing, good bulls can be found at almost any elevation in the fall along with mature bucks. Antelope are very low in numbers and almost exclusively found on private land. Be physically prepared before hunting above 10,000'. There is limited road access and private land impedes access in places.
