This unit is located in southwestern Montana and is just west of Townsend and west of Canyon Ferry Reservoir. Three Forks is on the south border and Helena on the north. The Missouri River is on the eastern border and the Boulder River on the west boundary. This unit encompasses the entire Elkhorn Mountain range.

Moose numbers are stable and there is good moose habitat in this unit. There are five bull tags and two cow tags available in this unit. Bulls into the 40+ inch range are harvested in this unit and the success is high. Also, this is the best elk unit in Montana, with bulls to 380” being harvested, so you might think of applying for both permits.
