How does onX Maps help with wildlife management areas?

Understanding Public Land Boundaries

onX Maps offers a comprehensive public land boundary layer that helps users identify public and private lands, including national forests, BLM lands, and wildlife management areas. This layer is crucial for hunters, as it enables them to plan their hunts and avoid trespassing on private property. By using onX Maps, hunters can zoom in on specific areas and see the public land boundaries, allowing them to make informed decisions about where to hunt.

Utilizing Layers to Scout for Wildlife Management Areas

onX Maps has a variety of layers that users can apply to their maps to gain valuable insights about wildlife management areas. The species layer, for example, allows users to see where different species of game are present, while the hunting unit layer helps users understand where hunting is allowed and what regulations apply. By applying these layers to their maps, users can identify areas where wildlife management areas are likely to be present and plan their hunts accordingly.

Creating Custom Maps for E-Scouting

onX Maps also enables users to create custom maps for e-scouting, which involves scouting for wildlife using online maps and satellite imagery. By creating custom maps with specific layers and waypoints, users can save time and effort when scouting for wildlife. For example, users can create a map with the species layer and the public land boundary layer applied, and then add waypoints to mark areas of interest. This allows users to quickly and easily identify areas where wildlife management areas are present, making it easier to plan successful hunts.
