Tap the map for landowners, PLOTS details, posting contacts, and road surfaces. Data loads live from ND Game & Fish and the ND GIS Hub, or from your saved offline areas when there's no signal. Always confirm boundaries on the ground.

About this data: Hoch Maps brings together public information from state and federal agencies, OpenStreetMap volunteers and others so it's easy to use in the field. It's for planning and learning, and it can be out of date or wrong. Signs, posted land, the regulations, permits and the officials on the ground always govern: confirm boundaries, seasons, road limits and conditions yourself before you act on them.
