At a Glance
Mule deer, whitetail and elk are hunted in this unit, which borders Yellowstone National Park and features a series of forested mesas and buttes in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest northeast of Ashton.
Comparatively easy to negotiate, this unit is mostly flat to moderately steep, but elk and deer are hard to spot because of dense cover. Hunters have better success during seasons that correspond with the elk rut and the deer rut and usually harvest small bucks. Most deer tags and archery elk tags are sold over-the-counter. The limited tag late deer rifle season offers better hunting.
