Antlerless elk shoulder-season hunts are set to reduce elk populations in some areas in central Montana. Hunters must obtain permission to hunt on private lands – no need to register or to be selected from any roster. The post-season pilot projects are located hunting districts 410, 445, 446, 449, & 452.
Permit applications to float Smith River State Park are available through Thursday, February 18, 2016. The permit drawing results will be announced on Thursday, March 3, 2016.
