At a Glance
This unit, which is between Meeker and Maybell, contains thousands of acres of BLM and state property, but most of it is surrounded by private land and therefore, inaccessible to the public. Axial Basin and the Danforth Hills include the largest tracts of accessible public land. The terrain is easy to hunt for elk, mule deer and antelope, and elk and deer tags are easy to get.
Wildlife officials manage this and many other units in the region to give many hunters an opportunity to hunt deer and elk. Hunting on public land is best during November rifle seasons but finding accessible public lands can be tough at times.
Quick Tips
- Bring a shotgun to hunt rabbits and small game
- Bring a fishing rod and trout fishing tackle
