Last updated by Aricin Rotarius
Unit 703 encompasses a significant region that covers large portions of Dawson, Wibaux, Richland, Prairie, and Fallon Counties. Its landscape is characterized by rolling grassy and sagebrush ridges, open prairies, and scattered breaks. This area is an excellent place to escape and appreciate the prairies of eastern Montana. During the early season, antelope can be found in small isolated groups that are rutting. Water holes can be a good source of hydration during dry years. As the season progresses, the size of antelope herds increase, and by the end of the rifle season, they can typically be found in very large herds.
