A mixture of private and public property, this unit is the east side of the Gore Range and its foothills northwest of Kremmling. Hunters with no preference points can draw deer tags for most seasons and can buy most elk tags over the counter.

Deer and elk have enough private land, wilderness and dense cover that some bucks and bulls survive several hunting seasons and reach trophy size though most hunters see much smaller animals. Hunters who get away from roads and hike around private property take some good animals and those who hunt private property have better chances of taking animals.

State ground and the Arapaho National Forest comprise most of the northern half of the unit, while there is a great deal of low and middle-elevation private land in the southern half. There is a drastic drop in elevation from the high country to the foothills. Some peaks range from 8,500-10,000 feet above sea level. Elk are spread throughout the mountains until snow gets to be too deep. Deer live at all elevations, but many migrate to low range in late October and early November.

Engelmann spruces mingle with lodgepole pines with some high elevation meadows in the high country. Douglas firs, aspens, grass meadows and sagebrush grow at middle elevations, while pinyon/juniper woodlands, sagebrush, oak brush, grasses and other browse grow in the lower terrain. There are many springs, small lakes and perennial streams. Bark beetles have killed a lot of lodgepole pines, leaving forests filled with blow downs and standing dead trees in the western part of the forest. Dense vegetation grows in infested areas.

Private land takes up much of the eastern and southern parts of the unit. National Forest Road 185 gives hunters access to public land south. County Road 19 accesses the northwest.

Kremmling has lodging, gas, groceries and other supplies. Camping is permitted on most public land.
