Referred to as the Seeley-Swan area this district holds elk, deer, and mule deer, but the best trophies coming out of here are traditionally whitetail. It lies north of Highway 200, up to the divide between Seeley and Swan lakes and is bordered to the east by the Bob Marshal Wilderness and the Flathead Indian Reservation to the west.

Lowered timbered areas provide cover to allow whitetail to reach maturity and hunting pressure isn't nearly as high as other areas this close in proximity to population centers.

The ground for western Montana is about as flat as it comes, but that is far from level. The eastern edge of the districts rises to 8,000 feet. The district sits in a large valley with Seeley Lake sitting right in the middle. so there is a little of everything.

The majority of this district is timbered with spruce, tamarack and pine being the dominant species. The higher elevations timber becomes more sparse and grass avalanche chutes descend from the peaks.

Nearly all this district other, than areas right around Seeley Lake, is Forest Service. Numerous roads access nearly all parts of the district, other than a few roadless areas heading into the wilderness that are trail only.

The town of Seeley Lake offers all amenities. Camping is available near the lakes as well, but ensure they are open before planning to stay there as closing dates seem to vary from year to year.
