At a Glance
This area includes several hundred square miles of elk and deer habitat on the north side of the Salmon River. Hunters can buy tags over the counter to hunt deer, mule deer and whitetail. About two-thirds of the unit is the northwestern part of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness.
This is a good place for hunters who don't mind seeing other animals while looking for mature elk and mule deer in the backcountry. About one in five bucks harvested are whitetails. Wolves have reduced elk herds significantly.
