On The Ground
This district is located in west central Montana. It is a relatively small district north of Whitehall. The district is larger, but the antelope are really only located in the valley. The antelope are found mostly on private land and access can be difficult and will require spending some time to acquire permission.
Antelope populations are stable and on the increase. Antelope are scattered all along the valley. There are additional doe, fawn antelope tags that can be applied for.
Terrain
This district is a long valley that parallels Whitetail Creek. It is mainly an extensive flat to slightly sloping bench that extends several miles to the base of the mountains. A majority of the area is easy terrain for stalking antelope but very open country.
Roughly 419 square miles
77.7% public land
Elevations from 4,500-6,500 feet
Vegetation
Much of the district that antelope reside in is open flat grass benches with some agriculture fields mixed in. Near the base of the mountain the terrain is more broken with some cedars and junipers. There are irrigated agriculture crops along the river valley. The center pivots and irrigated fields with alfalfa attract a lot of antelope.
Access
This district is accessed by Highway 399 and several county roads from there. The majority of the antelope reside on private land and access to the private land is difficult. Permission should be obtained prior to applying for this district. There are a few state sections and some BLM scattered throughout the district and some Block Management Areas also.

Whitehall and Boulder have several motels, restaurants and gas stations. Camping is allowed on the National Forest lands in the district.
