Arizona Hunt Unit 6A Map & Arizona Recreation Map

Arizona Hunt Unit 6A is Arizona’s most unique and versatile game management region offering diverse wildlife varieties and habitats found nowhere else in North America.
 
The Grand Canyon State has been divided into Hunt Units otherwise known as Game Management Units (GMU). Each of these units can contain state, federal, military and private land, and the boundaries serve in assisting the Arizona Game and Fish Department and the Arizona Game and Fish Commission in managing wildlife within its boundaries. And although these references seem specific to wildlife and hunting, each unit's boundaries can be helpful to any outdoor enthusiast whether you are hiking, biking, off-roading, boating or camping.
 
Arizona Hunt Unit 6A is administered by the Flagstaff Regional Office of the Arizona Game and Fish Department and almost entirely lies within the Coconino National Forest with small islands of private properties in various sections. The lands of this highly sought after unit journeys up to the high elevations of Arizona’s ponderosa forests, descends to the Pinon-Juniper belts, then to the high chaparral, and down to the river basin touching the fringes of the Sonoran Desert and also contains a variety of riparian zones.
 
The region is famed for offering one of the most diverse species of big game, such as trophy elk, mule deer, whitetail deer, rocky mountain bighorn sheep, antelope, mountain lion, black bear, turkey, and javelina. Additionally, excellent hunting can be found for tree squirrel, cottontail rabbit, fox, coyote, bobcat, and more. Because there are vast numbers of lakes, tanks, ponds, rivers and streams, it produces good waterfowl hunting and fishing as well.
 
The Arizona Hunting Regulations are published regularly by the Arizona Game and Fish Department. These publications will help you identify what and where you want to hunt, what you will need, and how to to go about applying for a hunting license. The Arizona Hunting Regulations has excellent information on draws, outdoor skills, hunter education, big and small game seasons and tips for things you should know before you venture out on your hunting trip.
