Unit E4 is North Dakota’s smallest elk unit at roughly 10 miles tall by 13 miles wide. Its location in the center of Unit E3, and bordering the Theodore Roosevelt National Park’s western and northern boundaries, makes it a desirable unit to draw. The state’s primary elk range covers the majority of this unit.
Don’t be afraid to get away from Theodore Roosevelt National Park – there are enough excellent public access properties in this unit that you’ll be able to harvest an elk elsewhere. The key to success on these public access areas is putting in the time to scout, stopping frequently to glass, and putting in the miles on foot.
