Elk Hunting in Unit 43

Where to Find Elk in Unit 43

What Idaho Fish and Game publishes for unit 43 is a boundary, not a elk map. Every place named below sits inside the unit line. Which of them holds animals in your season is for you to find out. The unit lies in Camas and Elmore counties. It runs to about 700 square miles.

How Idaho Fish and Game sets up elk hunting in unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game runs its general elk seasons by elk management zone rather than unit by unit, and puts unit 43 in the Smoky - Bennett Zone, so the zone's tag rules are the ones that apply here.

The lines of the unit: Boise River, Fall Creek and Anderson Ranch Reservoir

Idaho Fish and Game draws unit 43 in Camas and Elmore counties on a line that runs along Forest Service Road 113, Forest Service Road 123, Forest Service Road 128 and Forest Service Road 129, and past Boise River, Fall Creek, Anderson Ranch Reservoir and Lake Creek, written out corner by corner in its unit boundary descriptions. Read it as a frame, not as a hint about animals. What it does give you is the way in: the rivers and highways you cross, and the divides that decide which drainage you end up in.

High ground inside the line: Baker Peak, Smoky Mountains and Soldier Mountains

Named high points inside the unit include Baker Peak at 10,159 feet, Smoky Mountains at 10,158 feet, Soldier Mountains at 10,077 feet, Two Point Mountain at 10,065 feet and Smoky Dome at 10,060 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Elk want timber to bed in and open ground to feed on, within a short walk of each other.

Holding ground: Fern Gulch, Joan Gulch and Smoky Dome Canyon

Below them sit Fern Gulch at 6,727 feet, Joan Gulch at 6,720 feet, Smoky Dome Canyon at 6,619 feet, Ross Fork Basin at 6,593 feet and Sedum Gulch at 6,382 feet. That is the low country of the unit — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Pick the one with the least road on its upwind side.

Water: Orr Springs, McFarney Spring and Whitson Spring

The water inside the unit line comes to 105 mapped stream reaches, 6 lakes and 49 stock tanks. Named sources include Orr Springs, McFarney Spring, Whitson Spring, Abbott Springs, Goat Spring and Light Spring. Nothing in the data says which of them run in autumn, so a scouting trip earns its fuel.

Reading the land status

Our ownership read for this unit is approximate — it comes out as National Forest 60%, Private / Other 32% and State Trust 8%, so treat it as a starting point and check a current land-status layer before you plan a route. Named ground inside unit 43 runs from 4,167 feet to 10,159 feet — more than 4,000 feet between the named features alone, so the season you draw decides which part of it you hunt.

The lay of it

5,159–8,717 ft on a terrain sample , averaging 6,832 ft ; peaks can run higher.
699.5 sq mi inside the boundary.

Who owns the ground

National Forest — 60%
State Trust — 8%
Private / Other — 32%

Roughly 68% is public. Carry a land-status layer anyway — these are area percentages, not a map of where the boundaries fall.

Water on the ground

49 tanks
105 stream segments
6 lakes

Counts from mapping data, so this is how many exist, not how many hold water in a dry year. Sitting water only pays where you find fresh tracks.

Named features inside the unit

Glass from: Baker Peak (10,159 ft), Soldier Mountains (10,077 ft), Two Point Mountain (10,065 ft), Big Peak (10,000 ft)

Holding ground: Dollarhide Summit (8,713 ft), Blind Canyon (7,112 ft), Narrow Canyon (6,946 ft), Orr Springs, Whitson Spring

Every one of these was tested against the unit polygon before it went on the map. They are starting points, not agency recommendations.

How to Hunt Elk in Unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game's own harvest estimates put elk success in unit 43 at 7% across all manners of take. A number that low means most hunters here go home empty, and the ones who don't put the days in first. The plan: find the feed, find the timber it backs onto, then watch the seam between them at the edges of the day.

The 2026 controlled hunts in unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game's 2026 rules list 3 controlled hunts for elk on unit 43 under its own number.

Hunt 2019 — antlered elk, 20 tags, Oct 1–Oct 14
Hunt 2020 — antlered elk, 125 tags, Oct 15–Nov 10
Hunt 2192 — outfitter allocation elk, 4 tags, Oct 15–Nov 10. Antlered only

Dates and tag numbers are IDFG's as printed for that season, and IDFG changes hunt areas between years, so check the current booklet before you apply.

Applying for a unit 43 tag

Idaho Fish and Game's first application period for deer, elk and pronghorn runs May 1 to June 5, with results in early July, and a second period runs August 5 to 15 for what is left. A hunter drawn for a limited antlered-only elk hunt sits out the next year's first period for that kind of hunt; unlimited and extra hunts are exempt. Two to four hunters may apply together for the same hunt. Idaho's draw is random, with no preference or bonus points to build.

Glassing from Marshall Peak, Iron Mountain and Newman Peak

Take a position on one of Marshall Peak (9,729 ft), Iron Mountain (9,642 ft), Newman Peak (9,576 ft) and Gunsight Peak (9,458 ft) and be on it before light. In the dark the air runs downhill. Pick an approach that doesn't send it into the country you want to see, and plan to move once the slope warms. A tripod is worth more here than another hour of walking. On the rut hunts, September bugling works where you can get above a drainage and let the thermals carry sound downhill.

Water against feed

There are 105 mapped stream reaches and 49 tanks inside the unit, so water is rarely the limiting factor. Where water is everywhere, feed is what concentrates animals, so hunt the feed and treat water as a convenience. Sitting water works where you can see fresh tracks going in, and nowhere else.

Timing the season: Sep, Oct, Nov

Season normals here run Sep 74/38°F, Oct 59/29°F and Nov 42/19°F. By Nov the lows are around 19°F, and the first hard storm after that moves animals off the high ground — a late tag is a bet on that storm arriving. Precipitation runs about 0.7 in. in Sep, 1.1 in. in Oct and 1.3 in. in Nov, and the graded gravel in this unit turns greasy wet.

Getting past the roads: Trinity Ridge Road and FS 227

FS 227 and FR 010 need clearance, and that is usually where the boot tracks thin out. There is little true four-wheel-drive road here, so distance from the gravel is the only thing separating you from the next hunter.

What we can't tell you

Some of the ground named above carries no land-status flag we trust, so check ownership on a current layer before you hunt it.

Idaho rules that decide your day

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

Legal shooting hours

Big game may be taken from half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset.

Motorized retrieval

Idaho has no general off-road retrieval allowance on federal ground; stay on designated routes.

Tagging

Validate the tag by cutting out the month and day, and attach it to the carcass before moving it.

Leaving meat

Wasting edible meat is illegal.

Where you may not shoot

Occupied structures — No shooting from or across a public highway, and no shooting toward an occupied dwelling.

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.

Elk Success Rates

Rifle7%

Archery7%

Idaho Fish and Game's 2025 harvest estimates put elk success in unit 43 at 7% — 2 animals taken by 30 hunters. The hunter count is large enough for the percentage to mean something and small enough that a good or bad year still moves it.

These are the agency's own printed figures for this unit, not a modelled estimate and not a state average. They describe one season, so check Idaho Fish and Game's current harvest estimates before you read a trend into them.

Elk Draw Odds

Data from 2025 draw results. Each row is one residency pool — read the label before the number. This agency publishes no point thresholds, so the Pts column stays blank and these are pool odds, not what a point total draws.

Open in Draw Odds Engine

Idaho Fish and Game's 2025 first drawing for elk in unit 43, with residents and nonresidents kept apart because they draw from different tag pools:

Hunt 2020 — residents 946 applicants for 113 tags, 12% drawn; nonresidents 233 applicants for 12 tags, 5% drawn
Hunt 2019 — residents 340 applicants for 18 tags, 5% drawn; nonresidents 72 applicants for 2 tags, 3% drawn

Idaho draws at random with no point system, so these are what that year happened to look like, not a requirement to build toward. Idaho Fish and Game reuses hunt numbers for different areas between years, so the figures are matched on the area each hunt had in 2025. Checked against Idaho Fish and Game's hunt planner draw results on 2026-06-09.

Mule Deer Hunting in Unit 43

Unit 43 lies in Camas and Elmore counties and covers about 700 square miles. Named ground inside it runs from 4,167 to 10,159 feet. Idaho Fish and Game's harvest estimates put deer success here as high as 30%. Federal land covers about 97% of it. Check land status on a current map before you plan a route.

Where to Find Mule Deer in Unit 43

What Idaho Fish and Game publishes for unit 43 is a boundary, not a mule deer map. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Camas and Elmore counties. It runs to about 700 square miles.

How Idaho Fish and Game sets up mule deer hunting in unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game keeps a general deer season page for unit 43, and that page is where this year's dates and weapon rules live.

The lines of the unit: Boise River, Fall Creek and Anderson Ranch Reservoir

Idaho Fish and Game draws unit 43 in Camas and Elmore counties on a line that runs along Forest Service Road 113, Forest Service Road 123, Forest Service Road 128 and Forest Service Road 129, and past Boise River, Fall Creek, Anderson Ranch Reservoir and Lake Creek, written out corner by corner in its unit boundary descriptions. It tells you the shape of the unit and nothing about its inhabitants. Its value is practical — those are the features you will navigate by, and the ridges that separate one day's country from another's.

High ground inside the line: Big Peak, Ross Peak and Paradise Peak

Named high points inside the unit include Big Peak at 10,000 feet, Ross Peak at 9,752 feet, Paradise Peak at 9,737 feet, Marshall Peak at 9,729 feet and Iron Mountain at 9,642 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Mule deer bed on broken ground with a view and feed on the brush below it.

Holding ground: Pinyon Gulch, Camp Gulch and Ada Gulch

Below them sit Pinyon Gulch at 6,251 feet, Camp Gulch at 6,245 feet, Ada Gulch at 6,223 feet, McHan Gulch at 6,205 feet and Little Pinyon at 6,178 feet. Those are the basins, parks and bottoms this unit has, and they are what you glass into from above. Pick the one with the least road on its upwind side.

Water: Tate Spring, Bainbridge Spring and Lester Creek Springs

The water inside the unit line comes to 105 mapped stream reaches, 6 lakes and 49 stock tanks. Named sources include Tate Spring, Bainbridge Spring, Lester Creek Springs, Cook Spring, Orr Springs and McFarney Spring. Nothing in the data says which of them run in autumn, so a scouting trip earns its fuel.

How to Hunt Mule Deer in Unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game's own harvest estimates put deer success in unit 43 at 30% across all manners of take. That is an ordinary spread for this country, and it rewards whoever scouted. The plan: glass the broken edges at first light, then sit still and keep glassing the same ground.

The 2026 controlled hunts in unit 43

Idaho Fish and Game's 2026 rules list one controlled hunt for mule deer on unit 43 under its own number.

Dates and tag numbers are IDFG's as printed for that season, and IDFG changes hunt areas between years, so check the current booklet before you apply.

Applying for a unit 43 tag

Idaho Fish and Game's first application period for deer, elk and pronghorn runs May 1 to June 5, with results in early July, and a second period runs August 5 to 15 for what is left.

Glassing from Trinity Mountain, Dollarhide Mountain and Elk Point

Take a position on one of Trinity Mountain (9,372 ft), Dollarhide Mountain (9,222 ft), Elk Point (9,188 ft) and Skillern Peak (8,905 ft) and be on it before light. In the dark the air runs downhill. Pick an approach that doesn't send it into the country you want to see, and plan to move once the slope warms. Glass the edges first, then the shaded timber, then the edges again as the light goes. On the rut hunts, late-season hunts put bucks with doe groups and moving in daylight.

Water against feed

There are 105 mapped stream reaches and 49 tanks inside the unit, so water is rarely the limiting factor. Where water is everywhere, feed is what concentrates animals, so hunt the feed and treat water as a convenience. A tank with no tracks is a tank with no reason to sit on it.
