Is there a map that accually shows you where you can hunt and where you can't ...

Hey all,

I am wondering. Is there a map or something that shows you where you can hunt and where you can't because I was told by some hunters, that on my side of the highway, I can't hunt or discharge a gun but right across the road, I can hunt and dischrage a gun. It's also weird because the Sharon gun club is on the same side of the highway as me and they are allow to shoot, and I think hunt in that area.

Maybe also somebody knows where I can get a map to show where crown land is so I can plan a trip for the next deer season.

Thanks

Get some maps from your local township office of the place you want to hunt.

I've got maps of my whole area and it shows the crown land, private land and theres even a chunk of land marked as a navy reserve yet it's just a bush lot near the water.

Each Ministry of Natural Resources branch should have a land-use map available for purchase. Try the location at Midhurst as I believe it covers the area you are looking at. The maps show the area that that particular branch is responsible for, in Midhursts case it covers most of Simcoe county, and will have the land colour keyed for different uses (ie. native reserve, crown land, provincial land, DND land etc.) The map only shows a few major roads but by cross checking with a standard road map you should be able to figure out what you need to know.

A little research and you will be armed with all the maps you require... here is a good MNR link for crown land maps... http://crownlanduseatlas.mnr.gov.on.ca/

Did they give you a reason why you can't hunt that side? is it within city limits?

Well my side of the highway, there is a town about 1 km away but on the other side, it's almost all farmlands and well there is no city. I don't know. It sucks.
