Determining Unit Boundary

[mstei4]

As I’ve been scouting the unit I drew this year I’ve found a meadow that’s frequented by a significant number of cows, given I drew a cow tag that’s fantastic. Unfortunately from what I can see the unit boundary goes right through the meadow, at least that’s what Basemap shows. The unit boundary is the watershed boundary, easy enough to determine on high ridges, but less so on fairly flat meadows. Aside from using a gps mapping software and erring on the side of caution, is there some other good way to determine exactly where that boundary is to make sure I stay on the right side of it?

Walk the boundary line with your gps before season and mark it with a little flagging and natural land marks. During the hunt if you can sit on the boundary you will be better able to tell how close a cow is to it.
