This unit is mostly public land and offers phenomenal trophy elk hunting, excellent antelope hunting, and good mule deer hunting with potential for producing big bucks.
This is one of Arizona's top units for trophy elk. Average mule deer, big antelope bucks and challenging desert sheep are also in this unit. Early rifle and early muzzleloader elk seasons alternate year to year with the bigger bulls usually killed during early seasons.
