AI Scout Preview

AZ 22 — Bighorn Sheep. Terrain & Access AZ 22 spans nearly 1 million acres across a dramatic elevation range—from low desert at 1,328 feet to high peaks at 7,814 feet. Nearly all land (99.4%) is public, offering exceptional access freedom. Roughly 30% of the unit qualifies as wilderness, so most terrain is roaded or walkable, though high-country sections present typical alpine navigation demands. The unit's size and elevation diversity mean hunters must be prepared for variable conditions: low-elevation desert washes give way to mid-elevation canyon terrain and ultimately to high-country ridges and basins where bighorn historically concentrate..
