This hunting area is found in the north central area of the state and features some incredible scenery and bear hunting. This is a deceptively large area, but it isn’t really that big when looking for bear habitat. To find the bears you will need to look at the Eastern side of the unit where the Bighorn National Forest is located. Once on the mountain, you will find a lot of open meadows and valleys allowing you to glass a lot of land from one position. There are no Grizzly Bears located in the hunt area currently.
With the average bear harvest and no Wilderness Areas or Grizzlies in this unit, this is a great place for nonresidents to hunt.
Quick Tips
- GPS, maps, or a compass are highly recommended
- Focus your efforts on the mountain when trying to find bears
- Off trail/road travel can be difficult due to terrain steepness on the western slope of the mountain range
