How CANhunt helps you hunt in Northwest Territories
Northwest Territories divides its hunting ground into wildlife management districts (WMDs), and almost every question that matters in the field starts with which one you are standing in. CANhunt draws those boundaries over satellite imagery, so you can see where a line falls on the actual treeline or river rather than on a diagram, and tapping any point names the unit and what is open there.
Crown land is a layer of its own, drawn beside protected areas, parks and the zones closed to hunting, so the ground you may hunt in Northwest Territories and the ground you may not are one picture rather than two documents. All of it is available offline: download the part of Northwest Territories you are hunting before you leave, and the map, the boundaries and your own spots keep working where there is no signal, which is most of the ground worth hunting.
