orvisman25 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 wondering if any one knows the scoop on forever wild land owned by townships and if hunting is permitted or not... see some real nice bucks in these rural areas and trying to figure whether or not these lands are huntable atleast outside town zoning...

fasteddie Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I GOOGLED NYS Forever Wild Land and came up empty handed as far as an answer goes . There is a lot of information but nothing that says it can or cannot be hunted so I can't be of any help . I guess there are small chunks of Forever wild land around but thousands of acres in the Dacks and Catskills . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdswtr Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Let me guess the town claims it is there land right? If so that seems to have a common theme with the little parcels of forever wild land that Rosevelt left to the people of the state. Finding any information on the land is going to take more leg work than googling it on the internet. A trip to public records office would be needed if they are not lost and forgotten and just maybe on purpose. I could tell you a story of my hometown and land they posted and claimed as the towns land that was indeed deemed forever wild but not going into details on the internet about that one or how it turned out.

growalot Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 You may find better information contacting the Genesee Valley Conservancy http://www.geneseevalleyconservancy.org They are the group that put many lands into such listings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
