The PLOTS (Private Lands Open to Sportsmen) program has been around for over 20 years. Private lands enrolled in PLOTS are open for public walk-in hunting access. There will be approximately 762,000 PLOTS acres available for hunting this fall.

The annual PLOTS guide locates lands open to hunting through the PLOTS program, as well as public lands such as wildlife management and waterfowl production areas. The 2018 guide is available online at https://gf.nd.gov/plots/guide. Printed guides will be available at vendors late August/early September.
