Where to Find Mountain Goat in Unit G316
Montana FWP draws an exact line around unit G316 and says nothing about where the mountain goat stand inside it. The country below is verified; where to begin in it is our judgement, not the agency's. The unit lies in Park, Sweet Grass and Stillwater counties.
The lines of the unit: Slough Creek, Daisy Pass and Stillwater River
Montana FWP draws unit G316 in Park, Sweet Grass and Stillwater counties with a boundary that runs on Highway 212, and on Slough Creek, Daisy Pass, Stillwater River and Wounded Man Creek, walked corner by corner in its hunting district legal descriptions. It tells you the shape of the unit and nothing about its inhabitants. Its value is practical — those are the features you will navigate by, and the ridges that separate one day's country from another's.
High ground inside the line: Cutoff Mountain, Pinnacle Mountain and Miller Mountain
Named high points inside the unit include Cutoff Mountain at 10,695 feet, Pinnacle Mountain at 10,666 feet, Miller Mountain at 10,424 feet, Mosquito Peak at 10,413 feet and Timberline Mountain at 10,271 feet. Several carry a public-land flag in our data, which makes them the first places to try for a view. Goats live above the trees on cliff and talus and come down only when weather makes them.
Holding ground: Columbine Pass, Bull of the Woods Pass and Horseshoe Basin
Below them sit Columbine Pass at 9,883 feet, Bull of the Woods Pass at 9,874 feet, Horseshoe Basin at 9,155 feet and Wolverine Pass at 9,004 feet. Those are the basins, parks and bottoms this unit has, and they are what you glass into from above. Work out which of them you can see from one position before you pick a camp.

Mountain Goat Success Rates
Montana FWP's 2023 harvest estimates carry no mountain goat row for unit G316 that we can read back to this unit on its own. Where the agency reports a unit inside a grouping, or prints a table our parser cannot resolve to a single column, we leave the number out rather than publish a statewide average as though it had been measured here. Montana FWP's current harvest estimates are the place to check before you apply.
