    detailed WMU border maps?

    I remember someone posting up in the past a resource for making sure of the location of MU borders but I can't seem to find it...what do you guys use? I'm planning a hunt that's right on the border and want to make sure Im legal as the regs are different on either side..

    Wildlife Management Units - Datasets - Data Catalogue (gov.bc.ca)

    I use this as an overlay. There is a link included for use in Google Earth also.

    iHunter BC or HuntBuddy apps for your mobile while in the field.
    You can zoom in and they'll show where you are in relation to the boundary.

    I use this as a reference as well. But I think at the end of the day a good old paper topo map is your best bet in a legal situation. I have a good selection of the BC TOPO maps that includes areas I typically hunt. You want the waterproof maps, not the books. Generally available at sporting outlets, even Canadian Tire carries them.

    Screenshot of GE with MU overlay. MU borders are the red lines. In this case MU8-XX on the west where I was hunting, MU4-XX to the east. My hunt took me quite close to the border at times.

    If you have a gps like Garmin (like me), you can get the BC backroads map chip and install it on the garmin.
    I think it is extremely accurate and you would be able to use that.

    Now if they only had something for private properties etc that worked in the same manner and was updatable would be great.
    I too find all this overlays and trying to get it onto a mapping device pretty complexing as well.
