AZ 18B — Tactical Analysis. Terrain & Access AZ 18B spans 776,000 acres across a dramatic elevation gradient from 1,619 to 7,474 feet, offering both lower-elevation desert and high-country forest habitat. With 63% public land access, the unit provides solid opportunity for self-sufficient hunters, though checkerboard private ownership requires careful planning and map study before the hunt. Herd Quality Recent wildlife surveys document a strong pronghorn population with an average buck:doe ratio of 50:100—exceptional by most western standards. This ratio indicates light harvest pressure and an age structure weighted toward mature males, creating conditions favoring trophy-class animals..
