Start with current wildlife-agency sources, then verify the exact property, authorization, dates, boundaries, species, and rules before entering. An official record is not necessarily walk-in access or open private land.
A map, program page, or Back40 Pass request is not a license, tag, lease, booking, or permission to enter land.
Wyoming official-source review
Each record keeps its own authorization, land type, geography, species scope, hunter action, and official links. Similar-looking opportunities can follow very different rules.
The department's public-access hub covers Access Yes Hunter Management Areas, Walk-In Hunting Areas and Game and Fish managed lands, each with maps and area-level instructions.
Species: Species allowed by the selected access area
Geography: Wyoming public-access properties statewide
Hunter action: Use the current Access Yes property map; obtain the printed HMA permission slip where required and follow every HMA or Walk-In Area condition.

Wyoming Walk-In Hunting Areas open enrolled private and some state lands for only the species and dates shown in the current atlas, without requiring an individual permission slip.
Species: Species listed for the individual Walk-In Hunting Area
Geography: Current Wyoming Walk-In Hunting Areas
Hunter action: Open the live Walk-In Area record, match its species and date window to your license, and follow the mapped boundary, vehicle, parking, and property-specific restrictions.
