At a Glance
Mule deer, whitetail deer, elk and antelope are hunted in this area that is mainly a mixture of state, BLM and private land that has a lot of winter range north and west of Rexburg. Some hunting permits are sold over the counter and others are issued by lottery.
In years when snowfall is heavy, late seasons produced trophy size mule deer and elk. Hunters who get permission to hunt on private land can enjoy some good hunting for whitetail deer. A few resident deer and elk stay on or near agricultural land and whitetails live on private land along the Henry's Fork of the Snake River.
Quick Tips
- Ask landowners in advance to hunt whitetails
- A GPS with land ownership is recommended
