On The Ground

This massive unit is found in southwestern Wyoming and features good antelope numbers and a huge distribution of public lands. Most of the northern half is checkerboarded with public and private lands while the southern half is almost entirely public.

This area has good general access, and a high success rate. It is also one of the top areas in the state.

Terrain

The terrain here is made up of open prairie with large basins, creek bottoms and rolling hills that provide hunters with an opportunity to put on a good stalk. Glassing conditions are prime throughout the area and will generally be one of the best methods in originally locating herds.

  • Roughly 1,094 square miles

  • 66% public land

  • Elevations from 6,600-8,800 feet

There is a lot of high desert prairie here, along with sagebrush and grasslands. Rocky bluffs, cedars and small trees are common as the elevation climbs.

This unit has good public access. It contains several well-maintained roads, a network of BLM roads and smaller two track roads. Most of the roads here are in good shape, with a few passable only with four-wheel drive or ATVs.

Rock Springs is the closest town to this unit, and offers a lot of options for lodging. Groceries, gas and other stores can be found here as well. Camping is allowed on all public ground for up to 16 days in one location. Hunters can camp in remote locations.
