Where to Find Mountain Goat in Unit Chalk Creek/kamas, Uintas
What UDWR publishes for unit Chalk Creek/kamas, Uintas is a boundary, not a mountain goat map. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Duchesne, Summit and Wasatch counties. It runs to about 311 square miles.
The lines of the unit: Hayden Pass and Uinta Mountains
UDWR has unit Chalk Creek/kamas, Uintas Boundary begins at the junction of SR-150 and the Summit-Duchesne county line at Hayden Pass (summit of the Uinta Mountains); north along SR-150 to the USFS boundary; west and south along this boundary to SR-150 near Samak; east and north on SR-150 to the Summit-Duchesne county line at Hayden Pass. 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: Bald Mountain, Reids Peak and Mount Watson
Named high points inside the unit include Bald Mountain at 11,947 feet, Reids Peak at 11,668 feet, Mount Watson at 11,514 feet, Mount Marsell at 11,309 feet and Notch Mountain at 11,257 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Goats live above the trees on cliff and talus and come down only when weather makes them.
Holding ground: The Deli Dell, Erickson Basin and Gold Hill Pass
Below them sit The Deli Dell at 9,915 feet, Erickson Basin at 9,913 feet, Gold Hill Pass at 9,908 feet, Shingle Mill Flat at 9,848 feet and Norway Flat at 9,596 feet. That is the low country of the unit — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Reaching the edge of one before light beats reaching its middle at noon.
Water in this unit
The water inside the unit line comes to 883 mapped stream reaches, 53 lakes, 434 stock tanks and 3 springs. On ground with that many tanks, knowing which two or three hold water in your season is the most useful thing a scouting trip can tell you.
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 7,222 feet to 10,676 feet, averaging 9,273 — enough relief to separate summer range from winter range.

Open in Draw Odds EngineUDWR's 2023 draw recap for mountain goat in unit Chalk Creek/kamas, Uintas, with resident and nonresident kept apart because the two draw from different licence pools:
- Rifle, Limited Entry, Either Sex, resident: 202 applicants for 2 licences, 1% drawn, 10 bonus points needed
Utah draws on bonus points in a weighted random draw, not in point order, so the figure above is what it happened to take that year rather than a threshold you can plan to reach. More points buy more chances, never a turn. These are the figures as published in UDWR's own draw recap; we have not yet checked them back against the agency row by row, so confirm the hunt you mean to apply for before you count on a number.
