Eastern plains country centered around Wagon Mound—rolling shortgrass prairie to the Canadian River breaks. Flat to gently rolling, with the Canadian River cutting a shallow canyon through the northern portion that deepens as it runs south, developing steep-sided tributary canyons that hold more deer than you'd expect. Wagon Mound—a prominent volcanic butte—is the landmark on the western edge. Elevations 5,500 to 7,000 feet. Shortgrass prairie with blue grama, buffalo grass, and scattered yucca; PJ on the steeper canyon breaks and mesas. Most of Unit 47 is private ranch land or landlocked state trust, and the state issues few tags. NM 120 and I-25 are your paved roads; ranch roads cover the interior. Wagon Mound and Springer have fuel and basic supplies; Las Vegas, NM has fuller services. Cell service is decent along I-25, spotty elesewhere. Pronghorn and mule deer country best hunted with landowner permission and good optics. The Canadian River breaks offer surprising cover and can hold bucks that have been pushed out of the open country by pressure or weather. Wind is a constant on these plains—the kind that makes you wonder if it ever actually stops.
