Idaho Deer Unit 23

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Idaho Game Management Unit 23.

Unit 23 is vertical country: deer hunters work the South Fork of the Salmon drainage where the river bottom near 2,200 feet climbs to ridgelines above 9,000 feet, with 3,000 to 4,500 feet of relief packed into a single canyon. This is natural-water terrain, with the Secesh River, Johnson Creek, and countless perennial tributaries keeping animals rarely water-limited, while post-fire bitterbrush, ceanothus, and serviceberry feed the lower burns. Our data pack covers Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, plus a one-page Essential Recon summary. Study the unit on our interactive map, then export the points you choose into onX or your favorite hunting map.

How this data was collected

Data Hunt Guide aggregates publicly available sighting reports from across the web (social media, hunting forums, harvest reports, and trail-camera shares) and uses a proprietary algorithm to identify high-activity zones (hotspots) within each unit. Our team verifies coordinates manually before publication.
