CASTnBLAST Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 Ordered several Prim maps for my area for bird hunting and couldn't wait to get out the next weekend and check out some of the numerous spots available that I didn't know existed.From my outing I found the only places you could count on being open to public hunting were the WMA and WPA areas wich I already had on other maps.Those areas in green (state forest areas) were mostly posted,heck one spot turned out to be a open feild with a inhabited house on it!Anyone else out there finding the same to be true in the areas they hunt?

mechanictim Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 I have used prim maps to locate state forest land in south eastern Minnesota and found them quite accurate. I have seen areas that were posted after a land exchange, but there was usually a map to the new public land posted on the old access. I just wish they would start using lattitude and longitude instead of range and township so I could use my GPS to more accuratly find the boundaries.

Matt Breuer Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 I too have had great sucess with PRIM's. I have hunted a few of my maps down to the creases, and they are pretty dead on every time. As stated above, a few spots here and there lost to land exchange, but some opened up along the way as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeYager - Suzuki Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I found the same thing. I could not find two locations near each other on the Faribault map. The roads didn't seem to be there for one and posted signs prevailed on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
