Landowners can partner with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s Access Yes program to create more spaces for hunting and fishing in Wyoming. Landowners can enroll in one or more of the four programs that make up Access Yes: Walk-in-Hunting, Walk-in-Fishing, Hunter Management and Hunter/Landowner Assistance by contacting their local game warden, biologist, the closest regional office or any of the five regional access coordinators. Hunting access areas are enrolled in the spring and fishing areas in the fall. It’s easy to enroll, and your partnership is appreciated by hunters, anglers, and the Game and Fish.
