NV Bighorn Sheep Unit 245

NV 245 — Terrain & Access NV 245 spans 353,500 acres across a dramatic elevation range (3,181–7,953 ft), offering diverse terrain from lower-elevation desert bighorn habitat to high-country ridges. Nearly 98% public land access means minimal private-land constraints — hunters have broad freedom to explore and position themselves across the unit. The elevation spread supports critical seasonal habitat flexibility: lower and mid-elevation terrain provides year-round forage and water sources, while higher elevations offer escape terrain and cooler summer refuge. This vertical relief is the foundation of desert bighorn success in the Great Basin — animals move between these zones..
