Pronghorn Hunting in Unit 21
Unit 21 lies in Juab and Millard counties and covers about 1,477 square miles. Ground runs from 4,579 to 5,819 feet. UDWR publishes no per-unit pronghorn success figure we can verify for this unit. Most of the unit is private, so access comes before tactics. Check land status on a current map before you plan a route.
Where to Find Pronghorn in Unit 21
UDWR draws an exact line around unit 21 and says nothing about where the pronghorn stand inside it. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Juab and Millard counties. It runs to about 1,477 square miles.
What bounds unit 21
UDWR draws unit 21 in Juab and Millard counties with a boundary that runs on I-15, and on Sevier River, walked corner by corner in its hunting district legal 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: Fool Creek Peak, Williams Peak and Partridge Mountain
Named high points inside the unit include Fool Creek Peak at 9,653 feet, Williams Peak at 9,168 feet, Partridge Mountain at 8,817 feet, Blue Mountain at 8,593 feet and Buck Peak at 8,553 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Pronghorn live in the open and trust their eyes, which is the whole problem.
Holding ground: Upper Quaking Asp Canyon, Rattlesnake Canyon and Rogers Canyon
Below them sit Upper Quaking Asp Canyon at 7,158 feet, Rattlesnake Canyon at 7,069 feet, Rogers Canyon at 7,038 feet, Roger Hollow at 6,935 feet and Horse Hollow at 6,920 feet. That is the low country of the unit — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Work out which of them you can see from one position before you pick a camp.
Water: Cove Spring, Upper Clay Spring and Cold Spring
The water inside the unit line comes to 59 mapped stream reaches, 13 lakes, 20 stock tanks and 2 springs. Named sources include Cove Spring, Upper Clay Spring, Cold Spring, Chase Springs, Church Spring and Quarry Spring. Nothing in the data says which of them run in autumn, so a scouting trip earns its fuel.
Before you apply: who owns this unit
A UDWR permit does not authorise hunting on Native American trust lands, on a CWMU without that CWMU's own permit, or on National Park land, and written permission is required to hunt private land. 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. The unit runs from 4,579 feet to 5,819 feet, averaging 4,967 — not much relief, so the animals move laterally rather than up and down.
Unit 21 terrain and land status
Measured from the unit boundary, not from the agency write-up
The lay of it
- 4,579–5,819 ft on a terrain sample , averaging 4,967 ft ; peaks can run higher.
- 1,476.8 sq mi inside the boundary. Big enough that picking one drainage beats driving three.
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
- 20 tanks
- 2 springs
- 59 stream segments
- 13 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: Fool Creek Peak (9,653 ft), Williams Peak (9,168 ft), Partridge Mountain (8,817 ft), Blue Mountain (8,593 ft)
Holding ground: Bear Hollow (7,629 ft), Davison Canyon (7,304 ft), Lyman Canyon (6,908 ft), Cove Spring, Upper Clay 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 Pronghorn in Unit 21
Pronghorn Success Rates
UDWR's 2023 harvest estimates carry no pronghorn row for unit 21 that we can read back to this unit on its own. Where the agency reports a unit inside a grouping, or prints a table our parser cannot resolve to a single column, we leave the number out rather than publish a statewide average as though it had been measured here. UDWR's current harvest estimates are the place to check before you apply.

Open in Draw Odds EngineUDWR's draw recap has no pronghorn record we can tie to unit 21. That usually means the licence is sold over the counter, is issued under a hunt code covering several units, or was not offered in the years we hold. Rather than estimate a point requirement, we leave it blank — check UDWR's own draw recap for the hunt code you mean to apply for.
