OR Mule Deer Unit INTERSTATE — Interstate

OR INTERSTATE — Tactical Analysis. Terrain & Access The Interstate unit spans 1.4 million acres across a wide elevation band (4,139–8,220 ft), spanning sagebrush, ponderosa, and mixed-conifer habitat typical of south-central Oregon's high-desert transition zone. Nearly 59% is public land — a solid platform for unguided hunting. Access is distributed; scouting and local knowledge of road networks and trailheads will determine efficiency. The large acreage and elevation diversity mean multiple terrain options, but also that bucks spread widely across the landscape. Herd Quality Recent wildlife surveys show an average buck:doe ratio of 21:100 — an average composition..
