Thunder Basin National Grasslands, Black Hills National Forest, BLM land, oil fields and state and private land support both mule deer and whitetail herds. It can be hard to get public land access here.For nonresidents, this area is part of Region B and tags drawn for this area are also valid in: 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 21.
Mature mule deer and whitetail bucks have a lot of room in this unit to feed, bed and water. Identify boundaries around private land and spend time finding routes to public land before the hunting season.
