At one time a hunting map was a many-creased affair with coffee stains and blurry pencil marks, dog-eared and soft from use. Today it is as likely to be a digital map downloaded from the Internet.

The maps available on the FWP web site at fwp.mt.gov on the Hunting page are of the digital variety.

FWP’s Hunt Planner features an interactive hunting map that can be a lot of fun to play with but requires some computing power to operate. On the Hunting page go to the Hunt Planner and select the region and a species you are interested in and click for the map. You can choose to display species distribution, county boundaries, roads, cities and more and zoom in and out on the map.

Another map option is to go to the Hunt Planner page and select the Montana Land Ownership Maps under the Resource column for maps showing public and private land ownership.

Both the public and the private land ownership maps are updated annually and are available in Adobe PDF formats that can be printed on a large format printer by one of the print shops listed at the bottom of the Web page.
