MT 621 Tactical Analysis. Terrain & Access MT 621 spans 516,000 acres across a diverse elevation range (2,244–5,731 ft), offering both lower-country foothills and high-country habitat. With 82% public land, the unit provides solid access for DIY hunters across a mix of terrain types. The broad elevation band supports varied elk habitat from sagebrush and ponderosa to alpine meadows at higher elevations—terrain diversity that often translates to consistent hunting opportunities across the season as elk shift vertically with weather and hunting pressure.
