The Patrol Cabin Wildlife Habitat Management Area (WHMA) is located 24 miles northeast of Jackson, WY. Vehicular access is available via the Upper Gros Ventre road and sits adjacent to Breakneck Flat - Cottonwood Creek road. The WHMA sits in the Gros Ventre mountain range and hosts an elk feedground along with providing winter range for elk and moose. The 160 acre parcel has vegetative communities that consist mostly of a perennial grassland, mountain shrub, willows and riparian habitat with the Gros Ventre river flowing through the property. The area also provides habitat for Mule deer, Pronghorn, coyotes, and various species of songbirds and raptors. The elk feedground can be visited by oversnow vehicles during winter months. Vehicular travel is restricted to the snowmobile trail for winter game range closures.
