At a Glance
Area 143 makes up the northeast portion of Region G for nonresident hunters. Most of this unit has high elevation summer and early fall habitat for mule deer. The higher elevation can be found on the western half of the area, while the eastern half has lower terrain. There are not a lot of roads here, so hunters have to rely on the well maintained trails to access remote peaks and basins.For nonresidents, this area is part of Region G and tags drawn for this area are also valid in: 135, 144, 145
Area 143 is a good spot for backcountry mule deer hunters, especially those nonresidents that draw a Region G tag. The western side of the unit has rugged backcountry that holds some good early season deer hunting. A lot of this habitat is summer range with deer usually migrating east to winter. Great unit for backpack hunting.
