The large unit is comprised of an even mixture of public and private lands. During the earlier seasons, hunters will find good opportunities in the higher elevations. As snow arrives for the later season and the game is pushed into lower elevations hunters will begin having some access issues as many of these areas are private lands.

The state sells an unlimited number of elk tags for late October and early November rifle seasons so hunting pressure is intense then, especially near roads. There is mostly private land in the north half of this unit and remote wilderness to the souteast. Expect heavy ATV traffic on the west portion of the unit.
