Area Names:
Hunt Area 42-1*; Hunt Area 42-2*
Hunt areas are numbered sequentially by year and species. The unfortunate result is that a 2010 Deer Hunt Area 1-1 may not have the same boundary as a 2009 Deer Hunt Area 1-1 or even 2010 Elk Hunt Area 1-1. To be clear, always check the hunt area boundary to see if they match. For querying historical statistics you can use the huntplanner, drawing odds search and harvest statistics search tools on this site which do a rough match of historical hunt areas by units, species, weapons and other factors to allow comparison.
All of Unit 42 and that portion of Unit 41 within the East Fork and South Fork of the Owyhee River drainages outside the Duck Valley Indian Reservation boundary.
