About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedWallace County sits at the far western edge of Kansas sharing a border with Colorado, offering some of the most remote hunting terrain in the state where shortgrass ranch country and rugged canyon drainages support both mule deer and pronghorn. Few Kansas counties offer the combination of western species and dramatic landscape found here near the Smoky Hill River headwaters. Very low hunting pressure and genuine wilderness character define this overlooked corner of the Sunflower State.
Remote high plains in the far western corner of Kansas near the Colorado border. Republican River tributaries and prairie dog colonies create diverse habitat across an otherwise flat and open shortgrass landscape. Dramatic canyon topography develops along dry draws and creek drainages cutting through the tableland.
Very low. Remoteness, limited public access, and sparse population keep this county well under the radar of most Kansas hunters.
Over-the-counter archery and firearm deer tags for whitetail. Mule deer and pronghorn require special permits through the annual KDWP draw system.
Mule deer are the primary big game draw and are well distributed across the county. Pronghorn inhabit the open shortgrass rangelands and are available by special permit draw. White-tailed deer occur along creek corridors where woody cover exists.
One of the few Kansas counties offering legitimate pronghorn hunting by special permit. Remote mule deer in true western Kansas canyon country with minimal hunting competition and an authentic far-western character.
