Recreation
This property is within a draw unit that is highly regarded for hunting. This means that the area is known for having abundant populations of elk, mule deer, bear, mountain lion, and antelope and that the hunting opportunities in this area are considered exceptional.
A draw unit is a specific area of land that is managed by wildlife officials and has certain hunting regulations in place. Hunters must apply for a permit or tag through a lottery system, known as a draw, in order to hunt in these areas. Because only a limited number of tags are issued each year, the hunting pressure on the animals in these areas is often lower than in areas where hunting is open to anyone.
