In the north part of the state, this unit offers a great hunt for mature bull elk. With healthy herds of elk in Cache National Forest and good public access, this can be an enjoyable hunt for persistent hunters.

Managed for trophy bulls, this unit offers hunters willing to wait a few years for a tag the chance at a good bull. There are some large private ranches that limit hunting access. There is a premium tag available that allows hunting during all seasons.

Leading out of the farm ground in Cache Valley sits Bear River Mountain. Along the mountain range are high rolling flats and steep creek drainages leading down to the foothills.

Much of the unit is part of the Cache National Forest, giving great public access. There is road access on all sides of the unit with well-maintained dirt roads leading to less-maintained, four-wheel-drive roads and ATV trails. There are some large private ranches mixed with the public land, so getting hunting access to private land can be difficult.

Low elevations have irrigated farm land, sagebrush and oak brush. Continuing up through the middle elevations oak brush can be found, along with sagebrush, aspen, spruce and fir trees. The higher elevations have scattered aspen groves with steep slopes covered in conifer forests. Most of the high basins are grassy with short sagebrush. Elk can be located at these high timbered elevations that open up into meadows where they can feed.

Most hunters camp along roads, there are several locations that have decent flat camping locations for travel trailers or tents. There are a couple of designated campgrounds open to the public. Logan is located near the unit and offers lodging and services.
