This extensive unit is situated in the north-central region of the state and represents the easternmost area available for antelope hunting. While there are healthy populations of antelope present, their density diminishes as you move eastward. The northern and southern borders feature some agricultural activities, but much of the unit consists of undeveloped lands that evoke the characteristics of sand hills country.
