Montana Elk Unit 313

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Montana Game Management Unit 313.

Unit 313 sits on the northern doorstep of Yellowstone, where the broad sage flats and river benches of the Gardiner Basin rise abruptly into the volcanic peaks of the Absaroka Range, and for elk hunters that hard park boundary is everything: animals cross it freely, you cannot, which funnels most movement onto a handful of pinch-point trailheads. We track the country from the 5,200 ft Yellowstone River corridor up past 10,900 ft summits, the perennial drainages like Bear Creek and Tom Miner Creek, the mountain mahogany and bitterbrush browse, and the late-season push onto south-facing wintering grounds. The pack delivers Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, plus 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.
