Arizona Elk Mule Deer Pronghorn

Unit Camp Navajo

Arizona Hunting Guide — Elk, Mule Deer, Pronghorn

Camp Navajo is an Arizona Army National Guard installation in the ponderosa pine country west of Flagstaff, and its hunts are run cooperatively between AZGFD and the installation rather than as ordinary GMU hunts. That is the central fact for anyone who draws: AZGFD publishes no GMU unit guide for Camp Navajo, there is no agency area list, and access is controlled by the installation — entry procedures, required briefings, check-in and check-out, road closures and areas closed for operational reasons are all set by the post. Elk, mule deer and pronghorn tags are all drawn here in small numbers, on high-elevation forest and grassland.

Elk Hunting in Unit Camp Navajo

Where the elk are at Camp Navajo: what we can and cannot tell you

An honest note, and an important one. AZGFD publishes a per-GMU "Expanded Hunt Information" guide for every regular Arizona game management unit, and there is none for Camp Navajo — it is a military installation, not a GMU. There is no agency list of named areas, no published access map, and no survey write-up we can point you to. We are not going to invent drainages or tank names for a post we can't source.

What decides this hunt instead

Installation access. Camp Navajo is an active Arizona Army National Guard facility, and your hunt happens inside its gates under its rules. Before anything else, contact the installation's environmental or natural resources office through AZGFD and establish: the entry procedure and identification required, any mandatory safety or range briefing, where and when you check in and out, which roads and areas are open during your hunt, and what closes without notice for operational reasons.

The habitat you'll be hunting

This is the Coconino Plateau west of Flagstaff — ponderosa pine forest with grassland openings at around 7,000 feet, the same country the surrounding units 6B North and 7 carry. Elk here feed in the open parks and meadows at night, move into the timber at sunrise and bed through the day in the drainages. That pattern holds whether or not a guide names the parks.

Why the tag is worth having

Controlled access means low hunter density and animals that see very little pressure compared with the forest outside the fence. On a drawn tag with a small number of permits, that is the whole value.

What our own data shows

We hold no logistics record for Camp Navajo — no elevation profile, road inventory or campground list — because the pipeline that builds those keys off GMU boundary polygons and the installation isn't one. Published success figures for elk in this area run around 25 percent rifle, 22 muzzleloader and 18 archery.

Where to camp

Assume you are not camping on the installation unless it tells you otherwise. Flagstaff and Williams are both within easy reach, and the Coconino and Kaibab National Forests either side offer dispersed camping.

How to hunt Camp Navajo: make the installation call first, then hunt the parks

With no published area guide, the information that matters is what the post tells you and what the habitat dictates.

Start with the installation, weeks out

Ask AZGFD for the contact at Camp Navajo's natural resources or environmental office and work through the list: entry and identification, briefings, check-in and check-out, open roads, closed areas, whether vehicles may leave the road to retrieve an animal, and what happens if a training exercise closes your ground. Get it in writing if you can. On a controlled-access hunt these answers are the hunt plan.

Scout within the rules

Ask whether a pre-season scouting visit is possible. If it is, take it — a single day inside the fence learning where the parks and the water are is worth more than any amount of map study. If it isn't, ask whether the office will tell you where elk have been concentrating.

Hunt the pattern, not the place

Ponderosa with grass openings means a predictable rhythm: elk on the open feed overnight, moving to timber at sunrise, bedded in drainages through the day, back to the feed in the evening. So glass a park edge before first light, and sit the trail between feed and bedding cover rather than the middle of the opening. If your tag falls in the rut, locate a bugling bull and work the wind.

Water in a dry autumn

At 7,000 feet in ponderosa, water is in tanks rather than streams. Ask the installation where the functioning waters are and whether you may hunt near them, then read the tracks.

Safety, on a live installation

You're hunting on a military facility. Stay on the roads you were told to use, keep off anything signed, carry your permit and identification at all times, and be certain of every backstop. A hunt here continues to exist because hunters follow the post's rules exactly.

Plan the retrieval

Ask specifically whether motorized retrieval is permitted and where. If it isn't, plan a two-person carry before you shoot — an elk is a serious load regardless of how close the gate is.

Arizona rules that decide your day

Summarised from AZGFD regulations. They change — read the current regulations and your permit-tag before you hunt.

Legal shooting hours

Big game may be taken only during daylight hours — from sunrise to sunset. Check the sunrise and sunset times for your unit, not for Phoenix.

Motorized retrieval

Arizona permits motorized big-game retrieval only where the unit's travel-management decision allows it, and in several units only for elk. Where it is allowed it means one vehicle, one trip, within one mile of a road shown open on the Motor Vehicle Use Map — never inside a quiet area, a wilderness or a closed area. Pull the MVUM for your ranger district and confirm before you shoot somewhere you cannot carry an animal out of.

Tagging

Sign your tag before you go afield and attach it to the animal immediately after the kill. Hunters aged 10–13 must carry their Hunter Education card with the licence and tag.

Leaving meat

Leaving edible meat in the field is illegal. Edible meat means the four quarters and the loins at a minimum.

Where you may not shoot

Occupied structures — No shooting within a quarter mile of an occupied farmhouse, cabin, lodge or building without the owner's permission. That rules out shooting toward most lakeside cabin tracts.
Campsites and developed areas — Forest Service rules prohibit discharging a firearm within 150 yards of a residence, building, campsite, developed recreation site or occupied area.
Roads and water — No shooting from a vehicle, and no shooting on, across or into a road. No shooting across a body of water adjacent to a Forest road.

Elk: where to put the shot

Broadside or quartering away, on the back edge of the front leg about a third of the way up the body. That is lungs, and on a quartering-away angle it picks up the far shoulder.

Shots to refuse

No straight-on and no straight-away shots. An elk's chest is deep and the margin is small.
Nothing standing behind or overlapping the animal you picked. A pass-through kills the elk behind it too.
Your maximum range is the farthest you have put three shots in a paper plate off the sticks you are actually carrying. Not the farthest you have ever hit anything.
Scope on 3–4x. A herd fills a 12x field of view and you lose the animal you picked.

Identification:On an antlerless tag, legal means no antler of any kind through the skin. A spike looks exactly like a cow until it turns its head. If you can't see the head, don't shoot.

Plan the carry: roughly 150– 220 lb of boned-out meat, before head and hide — two to four large coolers, plus bagged ice from town. ProHunt planning estimate, not an agency figure.

Mule Deer Hunting in Unit Camp Navajo

Camp Navajo is an Arizona Army National Guard installation on the southern edge of the Colorado Plateau near Bellemont, northwest of Flagstaff. The reservation sits at 7,000–7,800 ft in ponderosa pine forest and open grassland parks — classic Arizona mule deer habitat. Limited civilian mule deer tags are issued through the AZGFD draw. Deer on the installation experience minimal hunting pressure outside of the controlled program, resulting in above-average buck quality. Hunters must coordinate access through AZGFD and Camp Navajo installation management.

Where the deer are at Camp Navajo: the timber and park edges, with a caveat

The same honest caveat as the elk page. AZGFD publishes no per-unit guide for Camp Navajo, because it is an Arizona Army National Guard installation rather than a game management unit. There is no agency area list and no published access map, and we won't invent place names for ground we can't source.

What you need before anything else

Installation access terms. Contact Camp Navajo's environmental or natural resources office through AZGFD and establish the entry procedure, identification required, any mandatory briefing, check-in and check-out, which roads and areas are open during your season, and what may close at short notice for operations.

The habitat

Ponderosa pine forest with grassland openings on the Coconino Plateau at around 7,000 feet. Mule deer in this kind of country use the timber and the brushy draws for cover and feed on the park edges and in the openings, with gambel oak and cliffrose as the browse that matters. Deer here behave like deer in units 6B and 7 next door.

Why controlled access helps

Low hunter density. The forest outside the fence around Flagstaff is some of the most heavily used recreational ground in Arizona; inside it, deer see very little pressure. On a small-permit draw that is the point of the tag.

What our data holds

We have no logistics record for Camp Navajo — no elevation profile, road inventory or campground list — because that pipeline keys off GMU polygons. Published archery success for mule deer in this area runs around 15 percent, which tells you this is a hunt for someone prepared to work.

Where to base

Assume no camping on the installation unless told otherwise. Flagstaff and Williams are close, with dispersed camping on the Coconino and Kaibab National Forests either side.

How to hunt it: ask the post, then still-hunt the timber and glass the openings

Archery success for mule deer in this area runs about 15 percent. On a controlled-access hunt with no published area guide, preparation is mostly conversation.

Get the rules in detail

Entry, identification, briefings, check-in and check-out, open roads, closed areas, and whether you may drive off-road to retrieve a deer. Ask too whether a pre-season scouting visit is allowed — one day inside the fence learning where the openings and water are beats any amount of map work.

Glass the park edges at first and last light

Deer feed in the openings and retreat to timber as the sun comes up. Set up where an opening meets cover, with the binoculars on a tripod, and be there before light. In ponderosa with grass openings that's the highest-percentage position available.

Still-hunt the timber in between

Through the middle of the day deer are bedded in cover. Still-hunting — slow, into the wind, eyes working the gaps at 40 to 80 yards — is how you find them then. Mid-morning, when bedded deer shift to stay in shade, is better than most hunters expect.

Find the browse

In this habitat, look for gambel oak with acorns down and cliffrose on the openings' margins. Deer key on both. Where you find heavy browse sign beside cover, you've found the place to sit.

Safety and conduct on an installation

Stay on permitted roads, respect every sign, carry your permit and identification, and be certain of your backstop. This hunt exists on the installation's goodwill.

Plan the carry

Ask whether motorized retrieval is allowed. If not, a mule deer is one person's load in two trips or two people's in one — but decide before the shot, not after.

Arizona rules that decide your day

Pronghorn Hunting in Unit Camp Navajo

Camp Navajo's open grassland plateaus and ponderosa parks near Bellemont, Arizona support a resident pronghorn population that receives virtually no hunting pressure outside of the limited civilian draw. At 7,000–7,800 ft elevation, the installation's wide-open terrain is ideal pronghorn habitat — long sightlines, mixed grass-forb cover, and minimal disturbance from vehicle traffic outside the base. Tags are issued through AZGFD; access requires coordination with Camp Navajo Range Control after drawing a tag.

Where the pronghorn are at Camp Navajo: the grassland openings

Same caveat, stated plainly. Camp Navajo is an Arizona Army National Guard installation, not a game management unit, and AZGFD publishes no unit guide for it. There is no agency area list and no published access map. What follows is habitat and access guidance, not invented place names.

Access comes before everything

Contact the installation's environmental or natural resources office through AZGFD. Establish the entry procedure and identification required, any mandatory briefing, check-in and check-out, which roads and areas are open during your hunt, whether you may leave a road to retrieve an animal, and what can close without notice for operations.

The habitat, and what it means for pronghorn

Ponderosa pine with grassland openings at around 7,000 feet on the Coconino Plateau. That makes these forest-edge pronghorn rather than plains animals — the same situation as the Garland Prairie herd in 6B North next door, where AZGFD notes pronghorn can be hard to locate because they spend much of their time in forested country more typical of elk and deer.

So hunt the openings and their margins

Pronghorn will use the grass parks for feed and the timber edges for cover and shade. Any sizeable opening on the installation is worth glassing, and the margin where grass meets pine is where animals appear and disappear.

Why the tag is valuable

Controlled access, small permit numbers and very little pressure. Published archery success for pronghorn in this area runs around 48 percent, which is high for a bow hunt and reflects undisturbed animals.

What our data holds

No logistics record for the installation — no elevation profile, roads or campgrounds — because that pipeline keys off GMU boundary polygons. Flagstaff and Williams are the nearest services; assume you're not camping inside the gates unless told otherwise.

How to hunt it: glass the parks from the timber, then use the trees to close

Forest-edge pronghorn on a controlled-access installation. Both halves of that change the normal pronghorn plan.

Sort the access and ask for help

Get the installation's rules in detail, and ask the natural resources office where pronghorn have been concentrating. On ground with no published guide, a biologist or range manager who sees the animals weekly is the best source available. Ask whether a scouting visit is possible.

Glass from inside the timber

Set up at the edge of an opening, in the trees, before first light, with the binoculars on a tripod. Pronghorn in forest country appear at the margins and vanish into the pines, so watch the edges rather than sweeping the middle. Keep glassing through the morning — pronghorn are active most of the day.

Use the cover to close

This is the one advantage forest pronghorn give you. In open country they see you at a mile; here you can keep a trunk between you and the animal and get genuinely close. Move slowly, keep the wind, and expect the stalk to take an hour.

Water, in a dry year

At 7,000 feet the water is in tanks. Ask which are functioning and whether you may hunt near them, then read the tracks. A blind on water is the most reliable archery setup in dry conditions.

Shoot carefully on a live installation

Know your backstop, stay on permitted roads, obey every sign, and carry your permit and identification. Ask about retrieval before you shoot.

Expectations

Small permit numbers on a small, lightly pressured herd in unusual habitat. Finding a buck may take days; getting close to one, once found, is easier here than almost anywhere else in Arizona.

Pronghorn: where to put the shot

Broadside, straight up the front leg, a third of the way into the body. Pronghorn are shallow-chested and the lungs sit forward.

Shots to refuse

Range it, then range it again. Open country makes 400 yards look like 250.
Wait for the buck to stop. Nobody kills a running pronghorn cleanly on purpose.
Mind the backdrop. A miss carries a long way across a flat.

Plan the carry: roughly 30– 45 lb of boned-out meat, before head and hide — one large cooler with ice already in it. ProHunt planning estimate, not an agency figure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need special clearance to hunt Camp Navajo?

Yes. Drawing a Camp Navajo tag grants conditional access — you must complete the installation's mandatory pre-hunt safety briefing, carry a current hunt pass, check in with range control, and comply with all military range rules. Civilian hunters without the tag cannot access the installation.

Can I use my own rifle at Camp Navajo?

Yes. You hunt with your own legal Arizona hunting firearm per AZGFD elk regulations. Installation rules govern transport — firearms must be cased and unloaded outside designated hunt zones, and ammunition restrictions per AZGFD apply.

How do civilians access Camp Navajo for hunting?

After drawing an AZGFD tag for the Camp Navajo draw unit, hunters must contact the Camp Navajo Range Control office to obtain an installation hunting permit. Valid government ID, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance are required at the gate.

What species can civilians hunt at Camp Navajo?

AZGFD issues limited civilian tags for mule deer and pronghorn on Camp Navajo. Both hunts go through the standard AZGFD draw process.

When is the pronghorn rut at Camp Navajo?

Arizona pronghorn rut typically occurs late August to mid-September. Archery hunts that overlap this window offer opportunities to use decoys and calling tactics on actively breeding bucks.

Do I need a different access permit for pronghorn vs. mule deer at Camp Navajo?

Yes — you'll need a separate installation hunting permit for each hunt. Contact Camp Navajo Range Control after drawing each specific AZGFD tag to arrange access.
