Arizona Unit 22 is in the Mogollon Rim Country of North-central Arizona, and has some excellent hunting opportunities. Be prepared to hunt the wilderness. Horses and mules, pack goats or some heavy duty backpacking is a necessity for both getting yourself in and out of the country as well as packing your game out. Whether you are thinking of applying for an early rut archery bull tag, early rifle bull tag, late season archery bull tag, or late season rifle bull elk tag, keep this unit in mind.

Hunting in Arizona Unit 22
Elk Hunts
These Arizona Unit 22 elk hunts can be drawn without having a lot of bonus points. This unit is split up into Unit 22 North and Unit 22 South. The elk hunts in Unit 22 North have more elk tags than in Unit 22 South, but both have quality bulls with little or no hunt pressure. Like many elk units in Arizona, Unit 22 has good elk densities with some very remote wilderness areas that can provide serious elk hunters with some very high quality, low hunter pressure, trophy elk hunting. Especially during the late season rifle elk hunt in Arizona.
Black Bear Hunts
Unit 22 has some excellent Arizona black bear hunts for hunters who would like to harvest a trophy color phase black bear that will make the record book.
Coues Deer Hunts
This Unit has some best Coues deer hunts available. The archery Coues hunts can be combined to include black bear and wild turkey.
Mountain Lion Hunts
Arizona Unit 22 is one of the best units for mountain lion hunting in Arizona. This unit usually produces some of the highest annual harvest numbers for mountain lions and is an excellent choice.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.
This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.
We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.
Thank you,

What an amazing experience!
The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
