On The Ground

Area 113, also referred to as Salt Creek is located in the central part of the state and north of Casper. Comprised of high plains desert and rolling prairie hunters can find good numbers of antelope here along with decent access options for public land.

A good population of antelope can be found here along with great hunting opportunities for them. Trophy potential is good in this area and hunters will typically have the option to look over a number of antelope before finding the buck they want.

Terrain

This area consists of grassy or desert-like open prairie, covered with ridges and deep draws. Glassing conditions are excellent here and will likely be the best route for initially locating herds. Deep cut coulees cover the landscape and create more cover than most will initially expect. Spot and stalk hunting here can be exciting.

  • Roughly 310 Square miles

  • 43.5% public land

  • Elevations from 4,400 – 5,500 feet

Rocky bluffs, cedars and conifers are to be expected as the elevation climbs up Pine Ridge but the vast majority of this unit is open prairie lands with heavy amounts of sagebrush and prairie grasses.

Public Access in this area is fair and hunters who keep after it can find some good options for success. Roads can become slick and tough to navigate during inclement weather so tire chains or ATV's are recommended.

Casper and Buffalo are the closest towns of any size, and offer many options for lodging. Groceries, gas, and other amenities can be found here as well. Camping is allowed on all public ground for up to 16 days in one location.
