This area is made up of the mountains located in the Shoshone National Forest in the west central part of the state. It is bordered by the Wind River Indian Reservation on the north, U.S. Highway 287 and Wyoming Highway 28 on the east and the Continental Divide on the southwest. This unit has a lot of public land, with a large portion within the Popo Agie Wilderness Area in the Wind River Mountain Range.

A rugged and steep unit with elk located throughout, this is a large area with lots of country to hunt. The bigger elk typically are taken from rugged and remote locations. Grizzly bears can be found here so proper precautions will need to be taken.
