Unit M6 is North Dakota’s largest elk unit, covering the entire southeast quarter of the state. Much of this unit includes the state’s primary moose range. The moose range in this unit extends from near Bowden, where Highway 52 meets Road 200 and runs east almost to Grand Forks. It then follows the Sheyenne River south between Jamestown and Fargo all the way to the southeast corner of the state. This area is your best opportunity to find moose, although they have been known to migrate throughout this entire unit.

Network with online forums, locals and G&F headquarters to find landowners with nuisance moose. They’ll often allow access on private property.
