Montana Elk Unit 240

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Montana Game Management Unit 240.

Hunting District 240 is a two-faced unit where broad sage and hayfield valleys near the Big Hole River climb abruptly into the granitic alpine core of the East Pioneer Mountains, topping 11,000 feet at Tweedy and Torrey peaks, so elk hunters work elevation bands from 5,500-foot bottoms to high cirques and tarns. We map the mountain mahogany and bitterbrush bench transitions, named drainages like Birch and Trapper, and how snow funnels animals onto south-facing winter ground. The pack covers Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, and a one-page Essential Recon summary. Study the unit on our interactive map, then export the points you choose to onX or your favorite hunting map.

How this data was collected

Data Hunt Guide aggregates publicly available sighting reports from across the web (social media, hunting forums, harvest reports, and trail-camera shares) and uses a proprietary algorithm to identify high-activity zones (hotspots) within each unit. Our team verifies coordinates manually before publication.
