Located north of Wendover, this unit runs north to south. The southern boundary is Interstate 80 with the western boundary being the Utah/Nevada border.
This unit has a lot of public land which usually holds about half the antelope population. Antelope are typically concentrated in the southwest portion of the unit. Hunters can find small pockets of antelope in groups of 10 to 20. There are few tags issued in this unit, but there are also a few nonresident tags issued. Some hunters like to concentrate their hunting on the Utah/Nevada border.
The majority of the terrain will be low elevation flats with some rocky rolling hills. Some pinyon/juniper patches checker the flats that hold some isolated drinkers and stock ponds that the antelope will use as a water source. Some antelope can be found on the Utah/Nevada border and some hunters will concentrate on this area. If you are going to hunt the state border you will need a good GPS to know where the state line is at all times.
This unit is dry and desolate. The high elevations contain some pinyon/junipers, with the mid to low elevations consisting of sagebrush, grasses, cactus and other low elevation desert browse.
This unit has great access to lower elevations where antelope can be found. Many good dirt roads and a high number of two-track ATV trails can be used to navigate the unit. Antelope are spread throughout this unit and hunters will need to cover a lot of ground between sightings. Quite a few dirt roads stem from Interstate 80 in the south end of the unit. Both the TL Bar Ranch Road and the Leppy Pass Road will cover much of the southern end. Hunters can access the north end of the unit using State Route 30.
Wendover has lodging, gas, groceries, and other supplies that hunters might need. Camping is permitted on most public land. There are no BLM managed campgrounds in this unit.
