When you donate to Access Yes, you support increased public access for hunting and fishing  in Wyoming. Access Yes is a funding source for the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s public access program.  Specifically, a donation to Access Yes supports hunting and fishing walk-in areas and hunter management areas throughout Wyoming. These areas consist of  private and landlocked public lands which that Game and Fish secures easements on to allow public hunting and fishing.

Each dollar donated to Access Yes, provides about 3.1 acres of access for people to hunt and fish.  Last year through Access Yes, 2,670,173 land acres, 4,006 lake acres and 86 stream miles were open for public hunting and fishing.  Donations made to Access Yes can only be used for easement payments for public access. To support Access Yes, you can donate when you apply or purchase licenses.  

So in 2019, please make a donation to Access Yes when you apply or buy any of your hunting or fishing licenses.  A big thanks to all the people who hunt and fish and others who have graciously donated in the past, resulting in increased public hunting and fishing access.  Visit our website for more information on Access Yes, and thank you for your donations.
