Several attest to the challenging but rewarding hunt, noting that understanding the migration patterns of elk and deer due to weather shifts is crucial for success. It's recommended to scout ahead of time, as the terrain can be difficult, and strategies may vary with elevation changes. Overall, hunters find the area promising but suggest patience and preparedness to deal with any unpredictable conditions.
Comprised of high plains desert and the Medicine Bow Mountain Range, this unit can be found in the southeast part of the state. There are a lot of BLM and state lands here, as well as a part of the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest. It is bordered by Wyoming Highway 130 on the north, the Laramie River-North Platte River divide, and Wyoming Highway 230 on the east.
Decent populations of elk are found here along with a healthy distribution of public lands. Nonresidents will need to be aware of wilderness boundaries here.
