This unit is mountainous and mostly roadless. The Fourth of July Creek drainage in Clearwater County can be found here along with a few Shiras moose for hunters that hunt hard.

Bull moose in this unit are hard to hunt because of dense forests, moose that are heavily hunted by wolves and limited vantage points with good views of openings in the timber. Few bulls are available, but a chance for a 33-38” bull exists.

This unit is made up of mountains and ridges that have steep southern and eastern slopes with mildly sloping northern exposures. Junction Mountain, Twin Peaks, Scurvy Mountain and the northern part of Gorman Hill are all located in the northern half. The southern part holds the uppermost reaches of the Fourth of July Creek drainage. Some elevations are dramatic, changing more than 3,000 feet in less than two miles. Main mountains are Cook Mountain, Lookout Peak, Junction Mountain and Switchback Hill.

North slopes are timbered with spruces, firs, pines and cedars. South slopes are a mixture of meadows and old burns and timbers. A few mountains are steep enough to have rockslides and a few cliffs. Willows, alders, wild grasses and forbs grow in openings. Some of the creek bottoms have large meadows with stringers of conifers extending into them.

The interior of this unit is mostly roadless. Forest Road 581 cuts between Gorman Hill and Scurvy Mountain. A road restricted to ATVs less than 50” wide connects Forest Road 581 with Scurvy Mountain on the south side of Scurvy Lake. A motorcycle trail connects that road with Switchback Hill.

Most hunters camp along roads. No towns with lodging are nearby. There are a few campgrounds along Forest Road 250. Kelly Forks Campground is a developed fee site with 14 spots.
