Almost all public ground with a wide range of topography. Most mountains are in the Humboldt National Forest, allowing for hunters to hike into roadless areas.

Primarily a unit where deer migrate, but hunting can be good during all seasons. There are low drawing odds for late season deer tags. Great roadless areas to hunt.

A wide range of terrain with an elevation change of 4,500 feet. At lower elevations, rocky desert grounds run against the base of mountains. Higher elevations have soft soils and canyons filled with pinyons and juniper trees.

Public roads and four-wheel-drive trails take you to different starting points. Private land does not impact access.

Mostly pinyon pines, junipers, mahogany and sagebrush at lower to middle elevations; grassy meadows, spruce and mahogany at higher elevations. Scofield Canyon is on the rebound from a wildfire and vegetation after the burn is healthy.

The closest towns with lodging are Alamo and Ely, both are long drives from hunting areas. Camping is allowed on all public ground.
