Last updated by Aricin Rotarius
Located south of Helena, Unit 335 encompasses the Boulder Mountains and the surrounding foothills west of I-15. This district offers whitetail deer hunting on a general tag. The trophy quality of the deer is generally better on private land, as public land bucks often struggle to reach maturity.
