This hunting area covers all land that is normally uninhabited by bears, covering the Red Desert by Evanston, over to Casper, up to Sundance and the Black Hills, and down to Cheyenne. There have been bears harvested in this area, but they are few and far between. The few that have been harvested were over in the Black Hills, north of Sundance and Newcastle. This is not an area that you should consider.
The few bears that are in this area seem to be moving into the Black Hills from South Dakota.
