Unit 035 covers the country between the Black Rock Desert and the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge in extreme northwest Nevada. The terrain is high desert basin-and-range: Hays Canyon Range, the Granites, and various smaller ranges rising from sage-covered basins. Elevations run from about 4,500 feet in the basins to over 8,400 feet on the higher peaks. Aspen pockets, mountain mahogany, and a few stands of Jeffrey pine dot the upper country; sage, bitterbrush, and bunchgrass cover the lower slopes. Several perennial creeks support riparian corridors. Almost entirely BLM with Sheldon NWR (limited hunting, separate regs) on the north. Highway 140 from Denio to Cedarville, CA runs the north edge; Highway 447 reaches the south. Cedarville (CA), Denio, and Gerlach are the closest fuel points—all minimal. Winnemucca is the supply hub. Cell service is gone outside the highway corridors. Mule deer hunting is the primary draw, with pronghorn on the lower sage and a small California bighorn population. The unit produces good bucks because the country is remote and pressure stays low. Roads are decent in dry weather and miserable when wet. Bring extra everything.
