In 2026, 304 residents applied as their first choice for 83 licenses: roughly 27% of them drew, since first choices are drawn before any second choice.

In 2026, 58 nonresidents applied. The preference draw reached 11 points. The random draw's winners aren't counted by point level in the report.

Harvest success in 2023 was 70.3%.

Reading these numbers

Nonresident elk, deer and antelope, and everyone's moose and bighorn sheep: 75% of each hunt's licenses go to the preference-point draw, highest points first (party points are averaged), and the other 25% are drawn at random among everyone who missed, points ignored. Residents draw elk, deer and antelope at random with no points; mountain goat, bison and the doe/fawn, cow/calf and ewe/lamb licenses are random for everyone. Nonresident 'special' licenses cost more and are drawn as a separate pool (hunt codes ending -S).
