A narrow unit formed by a portion of the South Platte River that flows northeast of Sterling and parallel to Interstate 76. Herds of whitetails and mule deer sometimes can be seen in the irrigated fields between the interstate and the river.

According to Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the Record floods of 2013 may have displaced many whitetail bucks into units 91 and 92 from Unit 96 south of Sterling. Elk are nearly nonexistent in this unit. You can pay a trespass fee to gain access to private land.
