Want to be prepared for the December 1 sale? We suggest you:
- Review the Big Game regulations here on our website. Note that a Game Management Unit must be selected when purchasing a Nonresident Deer tag, and an Elk zone must be selected when purchasing a Nonresident Elk tag.
- Review the number of tags available for the unit or zone you intend to purchase. Note that many units and zones have a limited number of tags available, and could sell out during the sale on December 1st.
- Log into your customer account, and ensure your contact information and account details are up to date.
