This unit is found in central Alaska and contains the city of Fairbanks. This area will see heavy hunting pressure thanks in part to the sheer population of hunters in this area, as well as a heavy road system found throughout the western half of the unit. The eastern end of the unit sees far more remote country but hunting pressure still exists here due to accessibility via ATV and jetboats. Compared to surrounding units, this area consists of heavily timbered low mountains which can pose some issues when locating game. The eastern side of the unit sees a more general makeup of marshy and muskeg areas and lots of water. As with most areas of boreal forest and low alpine, cross country travel can be difficult in this area.

The eastern portion of this unit can be a good option for a combination hunt to pursue caribou, moose, and bear. Good hunting can be found despite high hunter densities. Access options are easy for most and trophy potentials tend to be lower. Some remote country can still be accessed via jet boat or ATV but hunting pressure will still exist in these areas.
