Got any good spots too pitch a tent? I FINALLY drew my tag. Going on my first antelope hunt. It's been on the top of my bucket list since I was a kid. I'm so pumped right now.

Yep wyoming sorry was pretty excited last night when I seen the draw results. Been waiting a long time for this tag. I drove around the unit one day a couple years ago and didn't really look too hard for a camping spot. I was too busy looking at antelope and sage grouse.

Thank you woodtick those look like some good spots. We are kinda going about it all backwards we'd have never been antelope hunting before. We started putting in for points and next thing you know we had enough for a good unit. I'm pumped.

Take a fly rod and get a fishing license, you'll want a break from the heat and hunting, the Kokanee will be spawning while your there. It's some of the best fishing I've been in on and wet wade it'll feel good to cool off. Not many people can say they caught salmon and killed an antelope in Wyoming!

good luck, I'm sure you will have a great time. study up on how to judge antelope and don't shoot the first one you see, heck don't even shoot one the first day, well unless its a beast of course

Ya I'm going to read mikes book again. I was hoping to get a doe tag to help take the edge off. I know I'm going about this all wrong. Should of already been out a couple times before drawing this good unit. Oh well maybe I need to keep my ammo in my pocket like ol Barny fife

Could always leave the gun in camp the first day or 2. lol Whatever size antelope you get aslong as you are happy with it thats really all that matters!

I'm taking my youngest daughter over there to hunt this year. My oldest daughter killed her first (and only) antelope there 7 years ago when she was 12. Should be fun.

Yes sir if I get one it will be a trophy to me. Have always wanted to hunt them since I was a kid. Probably not on too many peoples bucket list but near the top of mine. Even got a spot on the wall saved for him. Thanks guys for all the help

Alpine, Wy.
How's this look for a spot?
If you want to camp at Fontenelle than this is the spot.
This 4th of July weekend we had the whole area to ourselves!!
Oh I don't recommend trying to put a 30' camper down there...it's a little scetchy!!
If you want to know where it is just let me know.
