ID Black Bear Unit 32

ID 32 — Tactical Analysis. Terrain & Access ID 32 spans nearly 923,000 acres across a substantial elevation range—from sagebrush flats around 2,100 feet to high-country peaks above 6,300 feet. Public land comprises 30% of the unit, meaning 70% is private or inaccessible. This mixed ownership requires hunters to identify open public parcels or secure landowner permission beforehand. The broad elevation band supports varied habitat: lower-elevation sage and grass transitioning to timber and alpine terrain at higher elevations. Hunters willing to scout and network can access quality ground, but the low public-land percentage demands pre-hunt research and planning..
