On The Ground

This unit is found in the center of the state and features a healthy population of antelope and good general public access. Most of the private land found in the unit is concentrated on the northern end of the unit while the southern half features grat access.

This area has good general access to the hunting public and hunters who work hard on this unit can expect a fun hunt with many animals spotted.

Terrain

This area consists of a variety of grassy or desert-like open prairie on the north end, with large basins, creek bottoms and rolling hills that provide opportunity for stalking in the south half. Spot and stalk techniques will work throughout this area and sitting over water sources during periods of high temps can be very effective.

  • Roughly 463 Square miles

  • 57.3% public land

  • Elevations from 5,500 – 7,600 feet

This area is covered by high desert prairie with sagebrush and grasslands. Rocky bluffs, sagebrush, cedars and small trees are to be expected as the elevation climbs into the Rattlesnake Hills.

Public access in this unit is good with the Gas Hills, Castle Gardens and Deer Creek Roads. It contains a network of BLM roads and smaller 2-tracks. Some roads are well maintained, with a few passable only with 4-wheel drive or ATVs.

Casper is the closest town of any size, and offers 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.
