This unit consists of mainly public, rugged and largely timbered land with a network of roads and ATV trails, as well as some deep canyons away from roads. The private land is limited and well posted in the unit.

In the spring, the bear’s diet generally consists of grass and forbs, and they will be relatively close to water sources. Most bear movements will take place during the early morning and evening hours. Their movement will continue to increase as hunts progress. The black bears’ mating season will reach its peak around the month of June. You can expect bears to be covering ground and looking for opportunistic meals. Their diet will transition from grasses to more substantial foods such as acorns, pine nuts, and berries.
