This smaller unit is found in south-central Alaska and lies just north of Anchorage. This area is densely populated and easily accessible to anyone. This area sees a lot of hunting pressure; many nonresident hunters will be urged to look into other units when planning their Alaska adventure. A good highway system covers most of the unit but bush/floatplanes will be necessary to access any of the remote areas. Additionally, foot travel into many areas is entirely possible. Vegetation can be dense at times, particularly around rivers and streams, but this area is generally good for glassing opportunities.

This unit is highly accessible to anyone, but hunting pressure can be very high throughout most of the season. Nonresidents will find a much more enjoyable experience when hunting other units.
