Learn MoreLandowners who permit you to use their land for outdoor recreational activities are not only doing you a favor, they place their trust in you.
Remember that you are a guest when using someone else's property. Make an effort to express your appreciation for the opportunity to use the land for recreational purposes. Take the time to say "Thank you," and always leave the land as you found it.
Each year, access to private property is lost due to land abuse. If you see a violation occurring, contact Operation Game Thief at 1-800-ALERT-US
