Beaverhead National Forest Hunting Area At
Willow Outfitters we hunt mainly in the
Beaverhead and
Gallatin National Forests, and more
specifically, one of our favorite spots to hunt for
big game is the
Lee Metcalfe
Wilderness area. The Beaverhead National Forest
is part of a greater area commonly known as the
Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest which is the
largest national forest in Montana, covering 3.32
million acres in Southwest Montana near the Idaho
border.
The Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest can be
separated into 9 distinct areas and covers 8
counties. In 1908 President Roosevelt named the two
forests and in 1996 the two merged and became one.
Several mountain ranges are located within this
area, and one in particular, the Madison Range
located in Madison County is where the Lee Metcalf
Wilderness area is located and one of the more
popular areas to hunt for Montana elk and large
game. This region of Montana is also known as the
Greater Yellowstone wilderness area and much of the
wildlife and scenery found in Yellowstone is also
found here. Enjoy
Montana Hunting Trips just
20 miles from Yellowstone National Park in the
beautiful Montana wilderness.
Hunting isn’t the only recreational activity you can
enjoy in the Beaverhead National forest. Skiing,
snowmobiling, cross-country trekking and camping are
all popular things to do in the wilderness area, and
hiking and mountain biking have long been a pastime
of many locals as the roads and by-ways in this area
are mostly rural and can be very primitive in parts.
At Willow Outfitters we’ll show you all the
great hunting spots in Montana and serve as your
guide to the beautiful mountains of Montana. With
their gorgeous peaks as your backdrop, you’ll
experience hunting in one of the most unforgettable
places in the world.
