This unit is found in the southeast corner of the state and is home to a small but growing population of moose. Historically moose have not been huntable in this location but populations have continued to grow to the point that the state now allows hunting.

A small but growing population of moose can be found here. This is a massive unit and hunters will really need to be prepared to cover ground in search of bulls.

Like most of the eastern side of Montana, this area is mostly comprised of open prairie land and rolling hills. Some of the terrain can be steep in areas though the total elevation gain and loss will be minimal. Glassing opportunities will be hugely abundant when hunting here.

Generally speaking, this area is going to be comprised almost entirely of sage, natural grasses, rock, cactus, and small patches of juniper. In isolated areas, large stands of ponderosa pine will also be encountered. The highest concentration of trees will be found along the Powder River on the southern end of the range though this coverage will still be considered light for typical bear habitat.

This area is largely checkerboarded with public and private lands. In Montana, corner hopping is considered illegal so hunters will need to pay close attention to land boundaries when accessing areas. The largest collections of public land can be found west of Broadus and just south of Ekalaka. Physically accessing these areas will be easy for just about everyone due to the gentler nature of the terrain and relatively low amount of dense ground cover.

Lodging options can be found in nearly every small town scattered throughout this area. Due to the sheer size of the district and the low population of moose, hunters will be faced with a lot of driving time and miles upon miles in search of bears making pinning down a central location for lodging next to impossible.
