This unit is located in the northwestern portion of the state, north of Jackson. This unit is bordered by two National Parks, Yellowstone to the north and Teton National Park to the west. A large portion of this unit is also designated Wilderness Area. There is only a narrow strip of national forest, about a mile and a half wide and 20 miles long, that runs along State Highway 287/26. Unless hunting with a guide, nonresidents will want to pay very close attention to the wilderness boundaries.

A good density of wolves will be found here but packs can still be notoriously difficult to locate. This is large and, at times, very open country. Optics will be very important. Nonresident hunters will want to pay close attention to wilderness boundaries.
