I am new to the Province and I am looking for some pointers on big game hunting in areas without, or with minimal, off-highway vehicle use in southern Alberta. What are your favourite areas to hunt where you've got to put the miles in on foot or hoof? Do those places exist anymore? Or is the blare of mufflers a permanent fixture of public land hunting?
Find places with a minimum number of cut lines and on foot you will be.
Buy the highest quality pack frame you can afford because you are going to need it.

Probably don't have to worry much about cultures in Southern Alberta.

Good point, I had the forested foothills stuck in my mind.
Not much for cut lines in the grasslands, LOL.
There isn't a problem with the blare of mufflers surrounding a hunter on the grasslands.
Southern Alberta public land grazing lease owners frown on any wheeled vehicles driving on the delicate grasses.
What are you two blathering on about? Do you even know?
There's only 5 posts to read, shouldn't be all that hard to comprehend.
I wouldn't have thought that it would be hard to figure out that cultures was simply a typo for cutlines, but then....

Thank you!
Most of KANANASIS 404 406 AND 408 IS OHV FREE. Its also on draw. Many grazing leases don't allow OHV either.Check the regs and you will find all you need.The 400 zone is also a no go for vehicles in the wildland park area.

Thank You for picking up on that. Spell check is a wonderful thing...said no one ever.

Most of 400 is OHV free and there is lots of area. On AB/BC divide that is no longer accessible to vehicles that I used to hunt. Better have some young helpers along with you for elk hunting.
Lots of large grazing reserves in the south 100 Prairie WMUs. Most have sparse gravel roads, rest must be trekked on foot. Do yourself a favour, get iHunter with public land subscription, should tell you much of what you need. Mule are draw down here mostly, but the bigger leases with flat land and less coulee have whitetail. Hard hunting, but if you want to put on miles, we have lots of them down here. That’s most of what I’ve hunted in my life.
Best Southern Alberta Non-OHV WMU?
