On The Ground
Nestled in the northeast corner of Utah with Wyoming as the northern boundary and Colorado as the eastern boundary. Flaming Gorge reservoir is located in the center of the unit.
Terrain
Antelope can be found on public land with low-elevation desert scrub and sagebrush. Antelope can be seen along the north end of the unit, with a few found in heavy cover and cliffy areas. There are some steep cliff areas within this unit, hunters should try to avoid these areas and look for the sagebrush-covered flats and mesas. There are some isolated drinkers and stock ponds that the antelope will use for water source. Hunters will be able to glass and cover large tracts of country here.

Access

There are good antelope numbers throughout this unit, hunters will want to use the roads to cover the unit. The Browns Park road will give hunters access to some of the prime antelope habitat. Hunters can also use State Route 318 to access the west end of the unit. Some antelope will be found in the desert areas along the shores of Flaming Gorge near Antelope Flat and Highway 191.
