Walk-In Areas, what changed
Since the
2025 season
No Walk-In Area in this hunt area changed between the 2025 season and now.
Compared from Game and Fish's own Walk-In layers: the 2025 season and the current one (2026-10-26). Enrolment changes every year; we keep each year's copy, so next season shows what changed again. Rules and dates: Walk-In Hunting atlas.
Access rules
Who can hunt here
Public land shown is open-access land in PAD-US; Walk-In Areas are private land enrolled with Game and Fish for walk-in hunting in season, and Hunter Management Areas need a permission slip from Game and Fish. Most elk, deer and antelope licences in Wyoming are drawn: seasons and quotas are in the WGFD regulations.
