The unit doesn’t contain any huge public-land areas, but there are many smaller sized areas that, combined with creeks, wetlands, and croplands, provide good opportunities for the DIY whitetail-deer hunter.
Part of the Southern Coteau region, Unit 2J2 is primarily known as a waterfowl haven. There are several pot-hole ponds in the area, many of which are the focal point of Waterfowl Production Areas.
