Unit boundary

Simplified for the web from Wisconsin DNR's public layer (source and terms). Units change with each season's regulations, and the legal boundary description in the regulations is what counts.

Wisconsin publishes the hours as zone tables, which can differ from this by a few minutes.

Turkey, waterfowl, some public lands and opening days have their own hours. Always check the Wisconsin regulations for your species (where this rule comes from).
