This unit is located in the southwest corner of the state with the Black Hills bordering just to the north. The only notable town is Hot Springs, SD in the far northeast corner of the unit. This unit is primarily private land with scattered public land available across the unit to include a decent amount of walk-in primarily in the far northwest corner. The terrain has scattered CRP mixed with rolling hills and pine ridges fading into the grass.

With decent access, and a solid mix of whitetail and mule deer, this unit is sought after by DIY hunters looking to find a place to hunt. You may also run into elk while in this unit.

This unit has a variety of terrain. There are many small creeks covering the unit with all the classic riparian vegetation up and down their banks. You can also expect to see lots of pine covered ridges, fewer as you get further south, that give way to a more classic prairie covered in CRP.

The primary route found crossing the unit from the south to the north and fading to the east would be highway 18 from the town of Dudley, to Hot Springs. Highway 71 also moves from south to the north leading to Hot Springs. There are smaller county roads scattered across the unit that give way to less maintained rural roads.

This unit contains a mix of short and tall prairie grass as well as countless species of wildflowers outside of the areas that are used for agricultural purposes. Heavy timber can be found in the more northern areas of the unit, getting more sparse as you work your way south. Along the different creek beds you can find a mix of Cottonwood, American Elm, Green Ash, and Bur Oak in the riparian zone scattered across the unit.

Located on the far east side of the unit is the town of Hot Springs. There are a number of established campgrounds in and around this town. There are a few others scattered across the unit as well. Primitive camping is allowed most of the time on the National Forest and Grassland, but it is a good idea to contact either entity prior to arrival to check for random closures.
