Last updated by Aricin Rotarius
This hunting district is located in the northcentral part of the state and includes the Bears Paw Mountain Range, which is located north of the Missouri River and south of the town of Havre. The Rocky Boy Indian Reservation is situated within the district, which presents challenges for both hunters and game managers. There are some good mule deer bucks to be found in the unit, which can be hunted with a general tag.
