Area 91 covers the Teton country east of Grand Teton National Park—the Bridger-Teton NF country running from Jackson Hole north toward Moran and east into the Buffalo Valley. Elevations run from about 6,200 feet on the Snake River bottom to over 13,000 feet on the Teton crest peaks (which lie inside the Park boundary; the unit's high country is just east of it). The country includes the eastern flanks of the Tetons, the upper Buffalo Fork drainage, the Gros Ventre Range fringe, and the Snake River corridor. Vegetation runs sage and grass on the Jackson Hole valley floor, aspen and lodgepole pine on the lower foothills, Engelmann spruce and subalpine fir at mid-elevations, and alpine country above timberline. The Teton Wilderness covers a chunk of the eastern country.
Bridger-Teton National Forest and the Teton Wilderness dominate. Grand Teton National Park forms the western boundary—no hunting on Park land, period. The famous National Elk Refuge handles winter feeding north of Jackson. Trailheads off US-26/89/191 provide access; Buffalo Valley Road is the gateway to the Teton Wilderness east entry. Jackson is the full-service supply town at peak prices—the Square, the Cowboy Bar, every kind of restaurant. Cell service drops past town. Quality elk, mule deer in the foothill aspens, moose in the willow bottoms, and grizzly bear country in full. Pack-in for the Teton Wilderness; truck-camp hunting works on the lower country.

Recent Trophy Scores · 2020–2025
Trophy score data is tracked by county, so the overlap with GMU boundaries is approximate. These numbers tell you whether the area is capable of growing big animals — they do not indicate public vs. private land. Big elk can come from anywhere; most elk in the lower 48 trace back to Yellowstone stock that was transplanted west after the species was nearly extirpated in the early 1900s.
