This is one of the more popular units in South Dakota. Miles of BLM and walk-in access areas with scattered state land across the unit offers great opportunities for public land hunters. The terrain is mild with countless creek bottoms separated by large tracts of CRP making for fantastic habitat and great hunting conditions.

There are good populations of mule deer and whitetail in this unit, and with very limited driving in and around the BLM and walk-in property spread across the unit, this is a great fit for hunters looking to put a few miles a day on their boots.
