New Mexico Bear Unit 24

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for New Mexico Game Management Unit 24.

Bear country here is defined by the Black Range, a long volcanic spine walling off the east side of this southwest New Mexico unit, with a chunk of its high ground locked inside the Aldo Leopold Wilderness where motorized access stops cold. Elevations run from 4,800-foot southern basins past 10,000 feet at McKnight Mountain and Hillsboro Peak, and bears work the piñon-juniper and Gambel oak bands where mast concentrates, tied hard to the Mimbres River and scattered tanks when it is dry. The pack lays this out across 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 to 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.
