On The Ground

This unit is found in the central portion of the state and lies to the west of Alcova. Comprised of high plains desert, this unit has a lot of BLM and state lands. It is bordered by the divide on Rattlesnake Mountain in the north and Wyoming Highway 220 on the east.

Great public access options are found here along with great populations of antelope. Hunters holding a tag for this unit will be in for a fun hunt.

Terrain

Most of this land is composed of prairies with large basins, creek bottoms and rolling hills that give hunters the opportunity to put on a good stalk. Spot and stalk techniques will work throughout this area and sitting over water sources during periods of high temps can be very effective.

  • Roughly 340 square miles

  • 77.1% public land

  • Elevations from 5,900-8,100 feet

Hunters can find a lot of open land and high desert prairies here, along with sagebrush and grasslands. Rocky bluffs, cedars and small trees are common as the elevation climbs. Rattlesnake Hills are rocky and sparsely timbered.

This unit has good public access and has several well-maintained roads, a network of BLM roads and smaller two track roads. A lot of the roads here are in good condition, with a few passable only with four-wheel drive or ATVs.

Casper is the closest town to this unit and offers several options for lodging. Groceries, gas and other stores can be found here as well. Camping is allowed on all public ground for up to 16 days in one location. Hunters can camp in remote locations.
