West River Shoreline Trail Waterfowl Hunting Access Information

• The water fowl season runs from Oct 27 through the end of January.
• In order to secure a blind along the West River Trail, we hold regular lotteries to assign blinds.
• We have divided West River Shoreline Trail into seven, color coded zones.
• Those that secure a spot in any of the West River zones will also be given a vehicle permit—as well as directions on how they can enter and exit their zone. The permit should match the color of the zone.
• Vehicles will park along off the pathway.
• All traffic will head south—entering and exiting at set intersections on the trail—there will be no two way traffic.
• Barricades will be set up at each entrance and exit and hunters will be responsible for moving them.
• Drivers will be expected to drive with flashers and no faster than 15 miles per hour.
• Trail users always have the right away
