UGBHEP Access Areas Points - 2025

This layer depicts project points for public and private lands where both Open Fields Program enrolled lands and Upland Game Bird Enhancement Program (UGBEP) project contracts exist. Projects that occur on lands enrolled in the Block Management Area Program are displayed as well as those occurring on State and Federal lands. Permission and contact information is provided where applicable. Open Fields is a cooperative effort involving Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, Private Landowners, and the US Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency. Open Fields targets Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and other highly productive game bird habitats on private lands that allow walk-in access for fall game bird hunting. Boundaries of enrolled lands will be clearly posted to identify the area open to walk in game bird hunting.
