This unit is south of Interstate 70, from the Colorado border almost to Ellis, and includes land draining into Smoky Hill River and its western forks. Mostly flat to slightly hilly, the land holds a fair number of pronghorns.

This is one of the best pronghorn units in the state.

Antelope in this unit enjoy a good mixture of grassy and brushy plains with crops growing on dry and irrigated farms providing extra feed. Water is abundant except in drought years. Not only do the Smoky Hill River and its many tributaries flow through this land, but there are many depressions that fill with water during periods of wet weather. Wallace and Logan counties are entirely in this unit, which also includes parts of Sherman, Thomas, Gove, Trego, Ness, Lane, Scott, Greeley and Wichita counties.

Most hunting here takes place on private lands that are serviced by county roads. Public land is limited, but the game department has arranged for many walk-in hunting areas, which allow public hunting at no additional fee on private tracts. These properties are listed in the Hunting Atlas, which gives details on public hunting areas as well.

Grass, yuccas, low brush and various forbs cover most of the high plains. There are many dry farms planted mostly in grains, including wheat, rye, milo, barley and oats as well as in sorghum and sunflowers. Thousands of acres are irrigated and planted in corn, alfalfa and grass hay. To water, antelope occasionally visit creek bottoms that have cottonwoods in places but mostly stay away from bluffs and edges of steep, brushy ravines.

Camping is not allowed in walk-in hunting areas. If you lease property and want to camp, get written permission from the landowner. Camping is allowed at Cedar Bluff State Park in Trego County and Scott State Park in Scott County. There are seven cabins available for rent at Cedar Bluff State Park, varying from a one-bedroom rustic structure to a modern cabin that can accommodate six hunters. There are two rental cabins at Scott State Park, and they are available for seven-day stretches. There are RV parks, private campgrounds and motels in several towns such as: Scott City Inn and Pine Tree RV Park in Scott City, Oak Tree Inn in Sharon Springs and The Derrick Inn and Riviera RV Park (phone: 785-798-5911) in Ness City. There is also a KOA in Goodland. Whistle Stop RV and Antiques provides hookups near Walmart in Colby (phone: 785-460-6000) just outside the unit. Thomas County Fairgrounds in Colby also provides parking for RVs but no showers or restrooms (phone: 785-443-2844). Another private campground is High Plains Camping near the intersection of Interstate 70 and Highway 83.
