Unit 17 sits inside the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness on the Nez Perce National Forest, and there is no road into it. You fly a bush plane about 35 minutes out of Missoula into Main Moose Creek Camp, then ride two to seven hours on horseback to whichever camp your hunt runs from, with everything you brought packed on a mule. It is one of the very few places that allows rifle hunting during the elk rut. The tags are guaranteed allocated outfitter tags, so there is no draw and no lottery to enter. You can add deer, bear, or wolf tags and make it a combination hunt. Camp is wall tents with cots, a table and chairs, a wood stove, a camp grill, firewood, and cookware, and three meals a day with snacks and beverages. Seasons and guiding - Rut hunt, 1-on-1, 8 days: September 14 to October 11, from $8,200 per hunter - Rut hunt, 2-on-1, 8 days: September 14 to October 11, from $6,900 per hunter - Late season, 1-on-1, 8 days: October 22 to November 7, from $8,200 per hunter - Late season, 2-on-1, 8 days: October 22 to November 7, from $6,900 per hunter Departures: September 14–21, September 24 to October 1, October 4–11, October 22–29, and October 31 to November 7.
