This area is located in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest on the western boundary of the state. It is bordered by Grand Teton National Park on the east, Yellowstone National Park on the north, the Idaho State Line on the west and Wyoming Highway 22 on the south. There is a lot of wilderness area in this unit, so nonresidents need to be aware of the boundaries. This is also well known grizzly country, so be sure to take the proper precautions.

This is a big area that is rugged and steep with a lot of country to hunt. This is a good place for hunters to take branch-antlered bulls. Look for bigger bulls in remote basins or canyons. Most access is through Idaho. Grizzly bears are known to be in this area.

Starting from the Idaho state line, this unit goes east to the peaks along Grand Teton National Park. Moderate rolling hills are found closer to the Idaho border, with the terrain becoming more steep and rugged in the higher elevations, with timberline at about 9,000 feet.

Wilderness

Under Wyoming law nonresidents are not permitted to hunt big game or trophy game in any federally designated wilderness areas without the presence of a licensed guide or resident companion. The resident companion must first get a free non-commercial guide license from a Game and Fish office. The law does not prohibit nonresidents from hiking, fishing or hunting game birds, small game, or coyotes in wilderness areas.

Low and middle elevations have a mix of grassy and sage-covered meadows, and hills mixed with Douglas fir and aspen. Higher up near timberline, there is a lot of thick spruce fir forest, with grassy slopes, meadows and basins.

There is a lot of good access to public land in this remote area, with vehicle access from Wyoming on the Grassy Lakes Road near Yellowstone Park and from Wyoming Highway 22 over Teton Pass. Most road access into the area comes from the Idaho side. This area is also covered by a complex and big trail system. Packing in with horses or backpack hunting is recommended, but day hunts are also possible. Some popular trailheads within this unit are South Boone, Conant Pass, Bitch Creek and Bear Creek.

Driggs is the closest town and has a lot of lodging options. Grocery stores, gas stations, and other amenities are also available. Camping is allowed on all public ground for up to 16 days in one location. Hunters can also camp in remote locations.
