At a Glance
Made up of National Forest in the Bighorn Mountains and some high plains desert, in the north-central part of the state, this unit has a lot of public land. It is bordered by the Montana State Line on the north, the Sheep Mountain Road on the east, U.S. Highway 14-A on the south and the Bighorn River on the west.
There is a lot of moderate and rugged terrain with elk found mainly on National Forest land. The bigger elk typically come from the more rugged and remote locations in the Devil Canyon area.
