The NorthWoods Stewardship Center property is intended to be a long-term community resource, and will not be posted. However, management priorities and educational programs may require that we prohibit or limit certain activities. These include, but are not limited to research, school programs, and other forms of recreation. Hunters should exercise special caution while hunting on NorthWoods property, as it remains open to the public for a variety of non-motorized recreational uses throughout the year. Hunters should review the NorthWoods Trail Map<\/a> to be familiar with areas that are likely to be used by other visitors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Restrictions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

There is a Safety Zone around our Main Campus, Lodge, and Buildings where NO HUNTING is allowed.\u00a0 See the highlighted area around the Main Lodge that indicates this safety zone on the map<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Hunting dogs-\u00a0<\/span><\/i>use of hunting dogs is permitted only during the hunting season. The use of dogs for training outside of hunting season is prohibited on the NorthWoods property.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Trapping-\u00a0<\/span><\/i>trapping is allowed on-site by written permission of the forest manager. Permission may include limitations on trapping locations, species that may be trapped, and bag limits.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Game Cameras<\/span><\/i> \u2013 are allowed on-site by written permission of the forest manager, who will confirm approved location. Name and phone number should be included on the camera.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

All hunting and fishing shall be in accordance with appropriate Federal and Vermont State Laws and Regulations governing these activities.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Of special note:<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Stands \u2013\u00a0<\/span><\/i>per state law, any stands or blinds erected or used on the site must have the prior permission of the forest manager. Where permitted, the stand\/blind must be clearly marked with the hunter\u2019s name, address and phone number.\u00a0\u00a0It is also illegal to use someone else\u2019s stand or blind without the forest manager\u2019s permission.\u00a0\u00a0Existing stands\/blinds that do not conform to the State law will be removed.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Baiting<\/span><\/i>\u00a0\u2013 baiting (salt or apples) for hunting purposes is illegal anywhere on the site, per state law.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
