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.
