Idaho Elk — Unit 14-1
Idaho Unit 14-1 covers 44,765 acres and lies 18 miles south of Grangeville and 54 miles north of McCall. 12% of it is public land, mostly BLM (7%) and state land (3%). In 2022, 34 people hunted elk here and took 26 — 76% of them killed something.
Your chance of drawing here
Idaho Department of Fish and Game has not offered an elk license in Unit 14-1 in any draw we hold. It has a page because the agency still publishes harvest for it — the Idaho elk hunts that are on offer are drawn elsewhere.

How the hunting has gone
What Idaho Department of Fish and Game publishes for this area after each season — harvest statistics for everyone who hunted it, not draw odds and not a forecast. Idaho Department of Fish and Game publishes these per hunt rather than per unit; the rows below add its own figures together, since a hunter holds one tag for the species in a season. Idaho's figures are counts from mandatory hunter reports and check stations rather than survey estimates, so they behave differently from the survey states.
| Season | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 34 | 26 | 76% |
| 2021 | 26 | 23 | 88% |
