Hunters reviewing Area 141 near Green River, Wyoming, appreciate its diverse terrain, which offers a mix of open landscapes and rugged terrain, suitable for both spot-and-stalk and still hunting strategies. They note that understanding the seasonal movements of game, especially regarding water sources and feeding areas, is crucial for a successful hunt. Drawing tags for this area can be competitive, but those who plan effectively and use knowledge of animal patterns during different times of the season tend to have better success. Overall, the area's accessibility and wildlife variety provide great opportunities for both experienced and novice hunters, warranting thorough pre-season scouting and strategy development.
Located in the Pinedale region, Area 141 is a limited quota deer unit near the head of the Green River drainage. This area has good numbers of mule deer and a few whitetail deer, with weather sometimes pushing the mature bucks to lower elevations from the Wind River Range. If weather is received, hunters can find good bucks in the low benches and sagebrush draws here. Whitetails can mainly be found on private land and along major river corridors.
Mule deer hunting can be good in this area if the weather hits before or during the season. Smaller deer and some bigger bucks will start to move into the area around the middle of October, but this unit is typically best later in the month with snow in the higher elevations.
