What do the numbers on the map mean?

Important information

  • The boundary is based on the association’s map and is provided for information only.
  • It is no substitute for local knowledge, your hunting guide’s instructions or hunting regulations. Never base a decision to shoot on this map.
  • The locations of hunting stands and feeding sites are not shown for wildlife protection and safety reasons.
