This unit is located in the southwestern corner of the state and is made up of high plain desert and a portion of the Uinta Mountains. Scattered populations of elk are found here throughout the unit with populations increasing later in the year as snow pushed elk down from the neighboring state of Utah. Public land is limited here and some hunters can struggle to locate elk in huntable areas.

This large area features a wide array of terrain types but the lack of public land can make this a challenging hunt at times.

This unit stretches from Interstate 80, south across high desert, ranch land and into the Uinta Mountains and National Forest. The terrain is more gently contoured at lower elevations but changes to steep and rugged in the mountainous areas particularly on the southern end.

This is a high desert country unit. Vegetation includes intermittent timbered slopes with many upland areas covered by sagebrush, grass and mountain shrubs. Timber stands are made up of limber pine, lodgepole pine, Ponderosa pine, subalpine fir and scattered pockets of aspen.

Public access is good and several well-maintained roads, a network of BLM roads and smaller 2-tracks can be found here. Most roads found here are well maintained, but a few are passable only with four-wheel-drive vehicles or ATVs. Packing in with horses or backpack hunting is possible, but day hunts are more common. This area is bordered by the Utah state line on the south and west, Interstate 80 on the north and Wyoming Highways 414 and 410 and County Road 283 on the east.

Evanston is the nearest town to the unit and offers several options for lodging, groceries, gas, sporting goods and other amenities. Camping is allowed on all public ground for up to 16 days in one location. Hunters can also camp in remote locations. Primitive camping spots are available at Meeks Reservoir.
