This hunt area is located in western Wyoming, north of Highway 26. This area is known for its high success and good bulls. The terrain here allows hunters to glass areas from high vantage points.

Area 20 has a good number of moose and hunters can locate moose by glassing during the archery and rifle seasons. Bulls during the beginning of the archery season will be more focused on looking for cows. Some bulls can score 150-160” Boone and Crockett

The terrain here varies from deep, narrow valleys to towering peaks. Upper elevations are composed of grassy meadows, some pine pockets and open rocky faces. Mid elevations are made up of patches of timbered pine pockets and open grassy faces. The creeks and river bottoms found in this area are mostly timbered.

Some tributaries and creek drainages can be found in this area. Rivers and streams have riparian habitat with willows, cottonwoods, shrubs, grasses and forbs. The vegetation on mid elevation canyon walls and faces transitions into grasses and timber pockets. Wet meadow grasses, forbs and sedges can be found at higher elevations.

Area 20 has Forest Service lands and ranch lands with good public access. The area is located east of the Idaho Border, west of Highway 191 and south of Highway 22.

Hunters can camp on Forest Service land within the unit with no permit required. Lodging at multiple motels can be located south of the unit in Pinedale and north of the unit in Jackson Hole.
