About this app

Our goal with Montana Hunting Access is simple: to give you an easy-to-use, all-in-one, no-connection-needed, guide to hunting lands within Montana. Period.

We designed our app to be intuitive.—We want you to spend your time hunting, not learning how to use our app.

We designed our app to work offline.—We know that you’ll be out in the field when you’re hunting (well duh!). In Montana that most often means you won’t have cellular service, much less WiFi. So Montana Hunting Access works regardless if the nearest cell tower is three counties away—and our counties are big! Everything you need comes with the app. Just download it and go hunting; we’ve taken care of the rest.

We understand the critical information you need.—After safety, the single biggest issue for Montana hunters is knowing where you can and cannot hunt. We are laser focused on providing you the most up to date information on boundaries between public and private lands, as well as private lands that are included in Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks’ Block Management Area (MFWP BMA) program. Montana Hunting Access allows you to use the GPS on your phone or mobile device to see exactly where you’re standing relative to the nearest private/BMA/public property boundary. And we provide the BMA documents associated with all of the state’s 900+ BMAs. The BMA documents show you, among many things, the location of those illusive sign-in boxes. And of course we provide topographic information for those times when your question is the simplest of all: “Where the heck am I?!”

We don’t want to nickel & dime you or complicate your life.—Don’t you hate it when apps ask you to buy something else? Didn’t we just buy the app for goodness sakes?! And we surely don’t want to complicate matters by making you decide which of dozens of possible maps you need to buy. That is a nice option for a cartographer, but for most of us it’s just plain confusing. All those options leave us wondering which map do I buy? What’s the difference between them? Am I going to waste money when I realize I purchased a map I didn’t really want? When you buy Montana Hunting Access, we include what you need for this year’s hunting in Montana—no separate purchases required or requested.
