At a Glance
Located near the southwestern end of the Bighorn Mountains in north central Wyoming, this area offers limited hunting opportunities for a small but stable population of elk. This area has some wilderness, but a lot of public land is available for hunters.
This can be a good hunt for DIY nonresident who wants the possibility to take a mature bull. Wilderness areas cannot be hunted without an outfitter or accompanying resident guide. Rough country can be found here, but it is not as demanding as other units to the west. Bowhunting for rutting bulls during the September archery season can be successful.
Quick Tips
- Be prepared for rapidly changing weather
- Maps showing land ownership will be very helpful
- GOHUNT Maps are recommended to help navigate this area
