Map Resources

[egreen4257]

Not necessarily looking for software so forgive me if this is the wrong place. What are some good resources for planning a hunt? I’ve been looking at CPW maps for elk migration patterns and ranges and BLM maps to see what sections of land are public or not, but is there anywhere I can see private property boundaries? Or even more specific GMU boundaries? There’s a general map but that’s not going to help me if I’m right on the edge of one and don’t know where it specifically ends etc. Colorado btw. Thanks!

You can open this file in Google Earth to see exactly where GMU boundaries lie: https://cpw.state.co.us/learn/SpeciesKMZMaps/CPWGMUBoundaries.kmz

I once had a custom map made at a surveying supply shop. It was a composite of USGS topos, BLM land use coverage (BLM, USFS, NP ect), and GMU boundary and was printed on waterproof paper. Probably cost $50 for one GMU and that was 20 years ago.

After that, I got a set of DVDs with statewide USGS maps, so I can plot location-specific tiled maps of my own.

Now I just keep a USFS map and a compass in the pack if I'm going miles, but most map work is done with Basemap.com
