Some designated wilderness and potential for grizzly bear encounters
This area is made up of scenic mountains located in the Caribou Targhee National Forest on the western edge of the state. Bordered by Idaho on the west and Yellowstone National Park to the north, this unit contains much public land and includes some wilderness area.
This is a rugged and remote area with most of the sheep located on the west side of the Teton Mountain Range. This is possibly the toughest area to hunt in the state. Good rams can be found with hard work. Sheep move between Nation Park and National Forest lands. Grizzly bears can be found here.
