Utah Elk EB3142
Limited-entry Bull Elk - Barney Top/Kaiparowits in Barney Top/Kaiparowits, handgun only, Nov 7–30, 2026. 98% public land, mostly BLM.
No longer drawn. The last draw was 2025.
Utah Division of Wildlife Resources held its 2026 elk draw without EB3142. The odds, costs and history below are that record, not an offer.
New for 2026
The 2026 draw is the first on record for EB3142: Utah Division of Wildlife Resources did not offer this hunt code in earlier years, so the year-by-year table has one row and there is no point-creep trend to project yet. The odds shown are that one draw's actual results, not an estimate.

Points Needed to Draw
One draw on file (2025), so there is no trend to chart yet.
Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.
Wait 5 years after drawing before applying again.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Utah Division of Wildlife Resources' published results (monte Carlo over published bonus-point pools). They are what happened in that draw, not a forecast. Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward. How we compute these.
