    Located in northwest Montana near the Idaho border, just south of Libby, this hunting district showcases steep terrain and challenging ground cover, along with a significant portion of the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness. Hunters can expect to see a healthy population of deer, although the average age of harvested animals tends to be relatively low. While some mature bucks inhabit the area, locating them can be quite challenging due to the rugged landscape. Although encounters with grizzly bears are rare, they can occur in the Cabinet Mountain Wilderness, so it's important to take necessary precautions.

    Being a general whitetail unit located just North of Bozeman makes this unit extremely convenient for folks flying in to Bozeman or even driving along I-90. However with that convenience, comes increased pressure at the limited access points of the Bridger Range. Private land or accessing public land through rivate land can be a big help here. Expect diverse terrain with some steep slopes and timber once you're out of the valley. You'll find the the majority of the whitetail population in agricultural fields and river bottoms west of the Bridger Mountains.
