On The Ground
Interstate 15 runs north and south through the middle of this unit with the city of Beaver in the center. Small herds of antelope are spread across much of the lowlands and foothills, but most pronghorn are found on or near alfalfa fields on the west half of the unit.
With good numbers of antelope and a limited number of tags, hunting quality is good. This can be a physically easy hunting with excellent road access. Herds can be found on or near hay fields.
Terrain
Most antelope are found on low flats and sagebrush-covered hills. Some patches of pinyon pines and junipers are scattered on the flatlands. Antelope water at stock ponds and isolated drinkers. Good vantage points give hunters a good view of large expanses of good terrain.
Some private land is on the valley floors, including sprinkler-irrigated alfalfa fields that attract antelope. Some hunters have obtained permission to hunt simply by asking. Enough public land exists that hunters don’t need access to private property to be successful.
Roughly 1,786 square miles
80% public land
Elevations from about 5,600-12,133 feet
Vegetation
Antelope live in low to middle elevations, where sagebrush, oak brush, grasses, various forbs, browse plants and pinyon/juniper patches are known to grow. A lot of water can be found here with many springs, small lakes, perennial streams, stock ponds and some guzzlers. Antelope typically do not wander to the unit's high country, which has tundra, rugged peaks and vast expanses of timber, including spruces, firs, aspens and pines. Antelope sometimes venture as high as aspen/oak brush but are usually in open terrain.
Access
Pronghorn hunters have good access via gravel roads, dirt roads and and ATV trails. Hunters should cover lots of ground and check over many animals to find bucks that meet their standards. Main access roads and points are along State Roads 130 and 21, and a few access points exist off Interstate 15.
