This unit is east of Thermopolis and near the southern part of the Bighorn Mountains, including Indian reservations, BLM and state land. Access to public land here can be hard. Mule deer and whitetails are commonly found here.For nonresidents, this area is part of Region M which encompasses units 36, 39, 40, 164. While in the same region, the general tag cannot be used in unit 36, which has it's own Type 1 draw permit.
The river valley and the mountains are good places for glassing mature deer. Whitetails usually like the river and creek bottoms for cover, food and water. They might bed away from the creeks in side drainages, but typically they can be found close to a food source early.
