Where to Find Pronghorn in Unit Box Elder, West
UDWR's material on unit Box Elder, West stops at the boundary — there is no agency account of where its pronghorn live. So the ground below is the unit's own and the read on where to start is ours, labelled as such. The unit lies in Box Elder County. It runs to about 2,296 square miles.
What bounds unit Box Elder, West
UDWR draws unit Box Elder, West in Box Elder County with a boundary that runs on I-80, walked corner by corner in its hunting district legal descriptions. That is a legal description, not a habitat map. 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: George Peak, Raft River Mountains and Rosevere Point
Named high points inside the unit include George Peak at 9,574 feet, Raft River Mountains at 9,224 feet, Rosevere Point at 9,008 feet, Grouse Creek Mountains at 8,985 feet and Red Butte at 8,985 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: Little Basin, Horse Heaven Gulch and Little Valley
Below them sit Little Basin at 7,234 feet, Horse Heaven Gulch at 7,120 feet, Little Valley at 7,044 feet, Clarks Basin at 7,036 feet and Browns Canyon at 6,992 feet. That is the low country of the unit — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Two you can watch from a single knob is worth more than five you have to drive between.
Water: Willow Spring, Tunnel Spring Number 2 and Tunnel Spring Number 1
The water inside the unit line comes to 126 mapped stream reaches, 5 lakes, 58 stock tanks and 58 springs. Named sources include Willow Spring, Tunnel Spring Number 2, Tunnel Spring Number 1, Clay Spring, McLaughlin Spring and Chambers 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 Private / Other 100%, so treat it as a starting point and check a current land-status layer before you plan a route. The unit runs from 4,239 feet to 6,763 feet, averaging 5,125 — enough relief to separate summer range from winter range.
