Gents,
I'm taking a buddy antelope hunting in WY when he returns from his deployment in the fall. I'm doing a group NR app with 1 point for each of us. We are not trophy hunting and I don't want your secret areas. I'm using a bunch of tools (gohunt, huntinfool, OnXmaps, Wyoming hunt planner, etc) to determine what units to apply for and public access solutions. I'm looking for boots-on-the-ground access reports for any of the following units: 25/26/44/45/56/113. No need to get specific on locations, unless you recommend a unit that I'm not looking at. I'd appreciate any first-hand reports from guys who have hunted the units to understand if there is good/bad/ugly public access in those units so I can narrow it down to one or two that we will actually apply for. I'd like to avoid paying for private access, if it can be avoided... unless you know of a reasonable landowner.
Also on a related question: where two pieces of BLM/State land touch at the corners, can you jump on the diagonal? (Think how a bishop moves in chess). In some of the units it seems that this is the only way to navigate the checkerboard. Thanks for your time!
