Montana Fish, Wildlife and Park has updated its Montana Hunt Planner in time for hunting season. The online map offers an interactive search and is tied into Montana’s hunting regulations, harvest statistics, the Block Management Area Mapping System, and the Upland Game Bird Mapper, among other services.
Additional information and links to other FWP web pages is available by clicking on map features. The interactive map also offers improved base maps, and hunters can generate GPS location files on the map.
The interactive map also offers improved base maps, with broad- and fine-scale images of hunting access opportunities, which allows hunters to tailor their hunting plans using the topographic, color satellite imagery, and land stewardship base maps.
