Almost all public ground with a wide range of topography. Most mountains are in the Humboldt National Forest, allowing for hunters to hike into roadless areas.

Primarily a unit where deer migrate, but hunting can be good during all seasons. There are lots of great roadless areas to hunt.

At lower elevations, rocky desert grounds run against the base of mountains. Higher elevations have soft soils and canyons filled with pinyons and juniper trees.

Mostly pinyon pines, junipers, mahogany and sagebrush can be found in lower to middle elevations, grassy meadows, spruce and mahogany at higher elevations. Scofield Canyon is on the rebound from a wildfire.

Public roads and four-wheel-drive trails take you to many starting points. Private land does not impact access.

The closest towns with lodging are Alamo and Ely, and both are long drives from hunting areas. Camping is allowed on all public ground.
