On The Ground
Southwest of Green River, this desolate unit borders Lake Powell and holds low numbers of antelope. The state issues very few tags in this unit.
Pronghorn are dispersed and low in number throughout the unit, but there are small pockets of habitat that hold antelope. Hunters who do not know the unit well or do not have access to private land here may consider applying for tags in other parts of the state. Some desolate, remote areas that hold antelope can be found in this unit.
Terrain
Lake Powell is on the southwest end of the unit and known for stunning red sandstone cliffs. The San Rafael Swell along State Route 24 has deep, scenic canyons. Capitol Reef National Monument is located in the middle of the unit. The Green River runs into the Colorado River and is the eastern boundary. Most antelope live on lowlands away from the deep sandstone canyons.

Vegetation
Low brush and desert grasses are the main plants where antelope live along with mixed pockets of scrub oak, pinyon pines, and junipers. Small stock ponds and seeps provide water to wild game and domestic livestock. Above antelope, country are mountains forested with ponderosa pines and aspen trees.
