Upland bird and waterfowl hunting at Quivira National Wildlife Refuge
Sprawling along both sides of the Arkansas River from Ness, past Great Bend and almost to Hutchinson, this unit holds small numbers of mule deer and good numbers of whitetail deer.
This unit has good whitetail hunting and has more pockets, bands of brush and tree cover than points to the West. Muleys are uncommon here.
