The Henry Mountains continue to produce exceptional mule deer year after year. Hunters who draw tags for this unit can be rewarded with the hunt of a lifetime.

This unit is strictly managed for trophy class animals, giving hunters an opportunity for a once-in-a-lifetime trophy mule deer buck.

The Henry Mountain Range, the only one on the unit, has a high point of Mount Ellen Peak at 11,522 feet above sea level. There are deep canyons that run off of the peaks down to the rolling foot hills. The lower hills and valleys are dry, cut up canyon country leading to the Colorado River and Lake Powell on the south end of the unit.

Although there is some private property within the unit, much of it is BLM or state land and offers good public access. There are numerous dirt roads that wind throughout the unit. Main access on the west side of the unit can be found at Notom Bullfrog Road, and on the east is Highway 95. There are some wilderness study areas that do not allow vehicle travel. Weather can make accessing some areas challenging as well.

Low elevations in this unit have dry, desert rolling hills and flats. Some grass, prickly pear cactus and sagebrush with scattered pinyon pines and juniper trees. Middle elevations are covered in ponderosa pines and oak brush while sagebrush continues throughout this elevation as well. Higher elevations have scattered small aspen groves with steep slopes covered in conifer forests. Peaks are covered in grass, wildflowers and rocky shale.

Many hunters camp along roads. There are several locations that have good, flat camping locations for travel trailers or tents. There are a couple of designated campgrounds open to the public. Hanksville is the nearest town, but is a good distance from hunting areas.
