On The Ground

Located in the northern part of the state with healthy herds of elk in the Cache National Forest, and good public access. Hunters willing to be persistent will enjoy this elk hunt.

There are some large private ranches that limit hunting access. This area also has dense timber and good elk numbers.

Terrain

Leading out of the farm ground in Cache Valley sits the Bear River Mountain Range. Along the mountain range are high rolling flats and steep creek drainages leading down to the foothills.

  • Roughly 444 square miles

  • 77% public land

  • Elevations from 4,500-9,700 feet

Low elevations have irrigated farm land, sagebrush and oak brush. Continuing up through the middle elevations oak brush can be found, along with sagebrush, aspen, spruce and fir trees. The higher elevations have scattered aspen groves with steep slopes covered in conifer forests. Most of the high basins are grassy with short sagebrush.

Much of the unit is part of the Cache National Forest, giving great public access. There is road access on all sides of the unit with well-maintained dirt roads leading to less-maintained, four-wheel-drive roads and ATV trails. There are some large private ranches mixed with the public land, so getting hunting access to private land can be difficult.

Most hunters camp along roads, there are several locations that have decent flat camping locations for travel trailers or tents. There are a couple of designated campgrounds open to the public. Logan is located near the unit and offers lodging.
