This unit includes several mountain ranges between Georgetown and Grays Lake. Moose can usually be found living in mountains above 6,500 feet.

Trophy quality and numbers have been declining, which has resulted in a reduction in tags available. Moose are commonly seen in the Grays, Woolley and Aspen ranges and on Schmid and Dry ridges.

Mountain ranges and valleys in this unit have excellent moose habitat. Moose can be found from the tops of mountains to the lowest valleys but are most common in timbered terrain or along willow-lined creeks and rivers. Most hunters find moose in the Grays, Aspen and Dry ranges on land managed by the U.S. Forest Service in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest.

Spruces, firs and pines cover the mountains along with large aspen groves. Valleys are mostly grassy flats used as private rangeland but creeks and rivers, such as the Blackfoot River, are usually lined by willows and other riparian brush, creating pockets of moose habitat. High basins and meadows are grassy and lined by brush or saplings which attract moose. Some areas are heavily brushed with plants that moose eat, like chokecherries and serviceberries.

Road access to the Caribou National Forest is good in most places. In some areas private ranches or farms block access to public land. Main access points are along the Wayan Loop Road, the Georgetown Canyon Road and Slug Creek Road. Another good cross country road is the Crow Creek Road near the Wyoming border.

Most hunters camp along dirt or gravel roads. Hunters in the backcountry can camp almost anywhere on BLM or national forest land. Most maintained Forest Service campgrounds are closed before archery season is halfway completed. Lodging is available in Soda Springs and in Montpelier located south of the hunting area.
