This unit is found in central Alaska and is home to the greater portion of the Gates of the Arctic National Park. The park itself is closed to hunting but portions of the Gates of Arctic National Preserve are open although none of these lands are found within the unit. This unit is comprised largely of boreal forest and tundra on the southern half and high alpine mountain peaks to the north and some of the most iconic Alaskan scenery offered. This unit is primarily remote with a handful of settlements being found on the Koyukuk River. Most of the hunting here will be conducted on fly-in or float trips utilizing some of the many available rivers.
