Nonresidents must hunt with a guide in wilderness areas
This unit is made up of the scenic mountains in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, just south of Yellowstone National Park. The majority of this unit is wilderness, leaving the DIY nonresident hunter with only a few options along the southern edge of the unit. This is some rough and nasty country, but the animals are plentiful. Definitely known for being grizzly country, so hunters should take that into consideration.
This is a rugged and steep area with elk found throughout. This is a large area with a lot of country to hunt and is a good place for hunters to find good bulls. Those willing to put in the effort should have no problem in finding success.
