AI Scout Preview

WY 51 – Beaver Creek. Terrain & Access Beaver Creek spans 113,070 acres across a vertical spread of nearly 4,300 feet, from mid-elevation sagebrush and grassland at 3,722 feet to alpine ridges above 8,000 feet. High public-land availability (77%) means most of the unit is accessible to walk-in hunters without permission. The terrain is mountainous with mixed conifer and transition zones. Access includes roads into the lower valleys; higher country demands foot travel, and the unit requires serious hiking effort to reach productive grounds. Expect significant elevation gain and sustained pack-in distances. ---. Herd Quality Recent surveys..
