Idaho Hunting Guide — Moose

Hunt Area 67-1 is drawn from unit 67, in Bonneville, Jefferson, Madison and Teton counties. Named ground inside it runs from 5,048 to 9,014 feet. Idaho Fish and Game publishes no per-unit Shiras moose success figure we can verify for this hunt area. Check land status on a current map before you plan a route.

Moose Hunting in Unit M67-1

Where to Find Shiras Moose in Hunt Area 67-1

Idaho Fish and Game's material on hunt area 67-1 stops at the boundary — there is no agency account of where its Shiras moose live. So the ground below is the unit's own and the read on where to start is ours, labelled as such.

What hunt area 67-1 is

Idaho Fish and Game describes moose hunt area 67-1 as that portion of Unit 67 north and west of Highway 31 and north of Highway 26. That makes it a piece of ground drawn for this hunt, not a unit, and the outline on this page is IDFG's own polygon for it rather than a unit outline. The units it is drawn from lie in Bonneville, Jefferson, Madison and Teton counties. Idaho Fish and Game also uses the code 67-1 for elk hunts, and in its own words "hunt areas are different for each species" — those are other pieces of ground, and this page is the moose area.

High ground inside the line: Piney Peak, Red Mountain and Liars Peak

Named high points inside the hunt area include Piney Peak at 9,014 feet, Red Mountain at 8,699 feet, Liars Peak at 8,673 feet, Thunder Mountain at 8,651 feet and Stouts Mountain at 8,602 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Moose want willow, water and shade, and they rarely leave the drainage that has all three.

Holding ground: Snowslide Gulch, Gopher Canyon and Coalmine Canyon

Below them sit Snowslide Gulch at 6,388 feet, Gopher Canyon at 6,034 feet, Coalmine Canyon at 6,034 feet, Wolf Canyon at 5,870 feet and Diamond X Canyon at 5,869 feet. That is the low country of the hunt area — the ground animals drop into when they are pushed or when the weather turns. Pick the one with the least road on its upwind side.

Water: Kelly Spring, Conner Spring and McCoullock Spring

Named sources include Kelly Spring, Conner Spring, McCoullock Spring and Roy Farnes Spring. Nothing in the data says which of them run in autumn, so a scouting trip earns its fuel.

How high the named ground goes

Named ground inside hunt area 67-1 runs from 5,048 feet to 9,014 feet. Those are the heights of the features GNIS names, which bound the range from inside rather than measure it.

Named features inside the unit

Glass from: Piney Peak (9,014 ft), Red Mountain (8,699 ft), Thunder Mountain (8,651 ft), Stouts Mountain (8,602 ft)

Holding ground: Government Trail Pass (7,881 ft), Thousand Springs Valley (7,678 ft), Pleasant Hollow (6,968 ft), Kelly Spring, Conner Spring

Every one of these was tested against the unit polygon before it went on the map. They are starting points, not agency recommendations.

How to Hunt Shiras Moose in Hunt Area 67-1

Idaho Fish and Game's per-unit harvest statistics describe general seasons on game management units, so there is no Shiras moose success figure we can tie to hunt area 67-1 alone, and we won't borrow one from a unit. The plan: walk the willow bottoms slowly at first and last light and look for fresh browse before you look for the animal.

The 2025 and 2026 controlled hunts

Idaho Fish and Game's 2025 and 2026 rules list one controlled hunt for Shiras moose in hunt area 67-1.

Hunt 3075 — 10 tags, Aug 30–Nov 23

Dates and tag numbers are IDFG's as printed for that season, and IDFG changes hunt areas between years, so check the current booklet before you apply.

Applying for hunt area 67-1

Idaho Fish and Game takes moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat applications together, and anyone who applies for one of the three may not apply for another big game controlled hunt in the same year's first drawing, apart from the unlimited, extra, black bear and depredation hunts IDFG names. A hunter drawn for moose may not apply for a moose tag again for two years except for leftovers, and IDFG allows one antlered and one antlerless moose per hunter in a lifetime. Two hunters may apply together on one application. Idaho's draw is random, with no preference or bonus points to build.

Glassing from Red Butte, Prospect Peak and Argument Ridge

Take a position on one of Red Butte (8,077 ft), Prospect Peak (8,007 ft), Argument Ridge (7,939 ft) and Squirrel Mountain (7,771 ft) and be on it before light. In the dark the air runs downhill. Pick an approach that doesn't send it into the country you want to see, and plan to move once the slope warms. Glass the edges first, then the shaded timber, then the edges again as the light goes. On the rut hunts, late September bulls answer a cow call near water.

The way in: Highway 31 and Highway 26

We have no road inventory for this hunt area, so the only routes we can name are the ones Idaho Fish and Game draws the boundary with: Highway 31 and Highway 26. Those are its edges, not its interior — useful because they are where you leave the pavement, and useless for telling you what the inside is like. Check each of them on a current motor-vehicle-use map before you count on it, because a line on a boundary description is not a promise of public access.

A first plan from the pins on this page

The map above marks Piney Peak, Red Mountain, Thunder Mountain and Stouts Mountain as places to see from, and Government Trail Pass, Thousand Springs Valley, Pleasant Hollow and Kelly Spring as ground to watch. Each pin is a named feature verified to fall inside the hunt-area line, not a spot anyone has hunted. Walk between two of them rather than driving between four, and you will learn more in a day.

What a day here costs you

With 3,966 feet between the lowest and highest ground, the walk back up out of a kill site is the part to plan first. Decide the night before where you will be at first light, and go there in the dark.

Idaho rules that decide your day

Summarised from IDFG regulations. They change — read the current regulations and your permit-tag before you hunt.

Legal shooting hours

Big game may be taken from half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset.

Motorized retrieval

Idaho has no general off-road retrieval allowance on federal ground; stay on designated routes.

Tagging

Validate the tag by cutting out the month and day, and attach it to the carcass before moving it.

Leaving meat

Wasting edible meat is illegal.

Where you may not shoot

Occupied structures — No shooting from or across a public highway, and no shooting toward an occupied dwelling.

Moose: where to put the shot

Broadside, behind the shoulder and a third up. Moose look slow to react — the first shot has to count.

Shots to refuse

Where it falls decides your next two days. Avoid shots that drop a moose in water or a bog.
A .30-06 class cartridge minimum, with a bullet built for heavy bone.

Plan the carry: roughly 350– 500 lb of boned-out meat, before head and hide — four or more large coolers, or a processor. ProHunt planning estimate, not an agency figure.

Moose Success Rates

Idaho Fish and Game's per-unit harvest statistics describe general seasons on game management units, and hunt area 67-1 is a controlled-hunt area, not a unit, so there is no figure here we can tie to it. A unit's general-season number would describe different hunters on different ground. Idaho Fish and Game's hunt planner reports controlled-hunt results hunt by hunt, which is the figure to check before you apply.

Moose Draw Odds

Season	Tags	Applicants	Draw %	Pts (n/p)
Controlled — 1st Drawing either sex (resident)	10	91	11.0%	—
Controlled — 1st Drawing either sex (nonresident)	0	17	0.0%	—

Data from 2026 draw results. Each row is one residency pool — read the label before the number. This agency publishes no point thresholds, so the Pts column stays blank and these are pool odds, not what a point total draws.

Idaho Fish and Game's 2026 first drawing for Shiras moose in hunt area 67-1, with residents and nonresidents kept apart because they draw from different tag pools:

Hunt 3075 — residents 91 applicants for 10 tags, 11% drawn; nonresidents 17 applicants for 0 tags, 0% drawn

Idaho draws at random with no point system, so these are what that year happened to look like, not a requirement to build toward. Idaho Fish and Game reuses hunt numbers for different areas between years, so the figures are matched on the area each hunt had in 2026. Checked against Idaho Fish and Game's hunt planner draw results on 2026-06-09.
