Walk-In Access Site Status Changes

This page provides current status for Walk-In Access sites that have either been added to or removed from the program after the printed version of the atlas was released OR are effected by emergency grazing and haying. Both the online version of the WIA Atlas and the online WIA tile sheets have been updated to reflect the open or closed status changes in the table. The list below will be updated as needed throughout the season. Changes to a site's status will be posted as soon as DNR staff are informed of changes by County SWCD staff.
