New Mexico Unit 34

Overview

New Mexico Unit 34 is a sought-after destination for hunters seeking an exhilarating elk hunting experience. Nestled in the eastern part of the state, this unit boasts diverse landscapes that include rugged mountains, rolling hills, and lush valleys, making it an ideal habitat for elk. The area's elevation ranges from 6,000 to 9,000 feet, providing a variety of ecosystems that support a healthy elk population.

Hunters are drawn to Unit 34 for its impressive bull-to-cow ratio and the opportunity to encounter trophy elk. The rut, which occurs in September, is a prime time for hunting in this unit, as the bulls are active and vocal, making it easier to locate them. Utilizing calling techniques and strategic spot-and-stalk methods can lead to successful encounters with these magnificent animals.

New Mexico Hunting Seasons in Unit 34

Unit 34 offers various hunting seasons, including archery, muzzleloader, and rifle, allowing hunters to choose their preferred method of pursuit. The early archery season is particularly popular, as it coincides with the rut, offering hunters a unique chance to engage with vocal bulls.

Scouting for Unit 34

Effective scouting is crucial for success in Unit 34. Utilizing a mix of U.S. Forest Service maps and BLM maps, along with modern GPS applications like OnX Hunt, can help hunters identify key areas where elk are likely to be found. Pre-season scouting can significantly enhance your chances of success during the hunting season.

In conclusion, New Mexico Unit 34 provides an outstanding elk hunting experience, characterized by its stunning landscapes, abundant wildlife, and the thrill of pursuing trophy elk in a breathtaking wilderness.

Our hunt was excellent.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
