One of the most useful tools for finding public land is the DNR’s Recreation Compass, which is an interactive map (here) available on the agency’s website. It’s easy to zoom in and find the locations of wildlife management areas, state parks, national wildlife refuges, public boat accesses and more. It’s also possible to overlay bear, deer and wild turkey permit area boundaries on the map, and to view aerial images of potential hunting grounds.
