This is a popular moose unit for the state of Utah with a lot of hunters applying for it every year. This unit is located east of Provo and south of Park City. Geographically, this is a very large unit with a large moose population.

One of the best moose hunts in Utah, this moose permit has become increasingly harder to draw in the previous years. Most moose will score in the 135–145” B&C range with a few larger animals harvested every year.

This is a very large unit that spans multiple counties. There is some steep terrain on this unit with some hard-to-access areas on the north end of the unit. The remote canyons have a good trail system and some hunters will use horses to access the backcountry areas. Water is found throughout the unit in springs, lakes, and streams which is also a good place to find moose.

Most high ridges and slopes above 10,000 feet are treeless with water and low-lying alpine vegetation. Most north slopes below 10,000 feet are timbered with firs and spruces, while middle elevations have Douglas fir, aspens, grass meadows, and sagebrush. Low elevations have pinyon/juniper, sagebrush, oak brush, grasses, and other browse.

There are some good-access areas in this unit. Interstate 40 starts on the north end of the unit and continues to the southeast end of the unit. Multiple maintained roads stem from Interstate 40 giving hunters access to much of the unit. There are some roads that will lead to the bottom of the canyons and turn into dead ends at trailheads. Much of the huntable area is roadless and hunters will want to use the trail system that covers the unit. Horses and other pack animals can be used on the roadless trails. There are some private property issues around some of the cities and ski resorts. Hunters will want to be aware of private-land boundaries but should not have any issues finding moose on public land. Some areas are easy to access, where moose can be seen from paved roads while other areas are more remote.

Provo, Park City, Heber City, and Payson are just a few of the cities that have lodging, gas, groceries and other supplies. Camping is permitted on most public land.
