Made from the popular Backroad Mapbook series of maps, the Hunting Topo Maps & Bundles are larger-scale, easy-to-read maps for any Management Unit or Zone across Canada.
The fall hunting season is upon us. Are you excited? So are we! Across the country, hunting season is the perfect opportunity to get out and explore the Canadian backcountry. While most hunters have their favourite “tried and tested” go-to hunting locations, it can be just as fun to get out and discover somewhere new. Regardless of where and what you are hunting, from wild turkey in British Columbia, to moose in Ontario, or on a Limited Entry Hunt for elk and mountain sheep in the rugged Rockies of Alberta, there is certainly no shortage of land to explore in our beautiful country. To help you get on track to hunt your next trophy, plan your next hunting trip, or just get out to explore the beautiful backcountry, we are excited to introduce our new Hunting Topo Maps & Bundles.
Hunting Topo Maps & Bundles
Geared to selected hunting areas in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, our Hunting Topos combine our topo maps into a single map for smaller hunting management units and zones, detailing hunting areas like never before. Trusted by hunters for over 30 years to lead them to the best hunting areas across the country, our mapbooks offer a convenient, compact booklet with additional details on hunting areas and regulations, campsites, trails and much more. The BRMB TOPO maps use these same detailed maps but are enlarged for easier viewing and reading natural features, elevation changes, roads and trails and Adventure Points of Interest.
For larger areas, we have combined all the maps you need, in one convenient bundle. Covering the entire Management Unit or Zone of choice, the Hunting Bundles allow us to showcase the area in greater detail. In addition to British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, these bundles are available for Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick and any other province or area on request.
Large Format and Durable
To create these 24" x 36" maps, our cartography team merges several of our classic Backroad TOPO maps together to highlight some of the main hunting areas across Canada. Printed on water and tear-resistant material, our Hunting Maps & Bundles can withstand all that Mother Nature throws at you, making them the perfect accessory to any hunting adventure.
Starting at 1:50,000 scale, these maps feature clearly marked Wildlife Management Units or Zones and Game Hunting Areas, along with crown and private land areas. Industry-leading topographic contours and relief shading, even clearer than they appear in our Backroad Mapbooks, ensure that you know exactly what to expect from the terrain, and we chart every lake, river, stream and creek, plus wetlands and glaciers. These maps can come folded, so they easily fit in your pocket or backpack, or as a Wall Map to be hung on a cabin wall or laid across a table to help plan your outing.
Clearly Labelled Hunting Zones
Our Hunting Maps & Bundles feature clearly defined Hunting or Wildlife Management Zones from Wildlife Management Units (WMU) in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario, Wildlife Management Zones (WMZ) in New Brunswick and Saskatchewan, and Game Hunting Areas (GHA) in Manitoba. Since rules and seasons can change from one Unit, Zone, or Area to the next, knowing what zone you are in is important for a hassle-free hunt.
Crown Land and private land are highlighted to aid in trip planning and making your way to your chosen hunting spot. We also show First Nation reserves, conservation areas, wildlife refuges and provincial and national parks across the country.
Endless Road Networks & Tons of Trails
From highways to rural roads, logging roads, and even deactivated roads, our updated maps have you covered when it comes to accessing that hard-to-reach hunting spot. We know that the best hunting areas are usually found deep in the bush, which is why our Hunting TOPO Maps & Bundles feature the most extensive road coverage of any recreation or topographic map available on the market. To get you even closer to that trophy animal, our Hunting TOPO Maps & Bundles contain thousands of kilometres of hiking, ATVing, and snowmobiling trails, as well as paddling routes complete with portages and marked trailheads. Whether you are still hunting a whitetail or setting up a bird blind, these maps will get you exactly where you need to go.
Points of Interest
Looking to turn your day of hunting into an overnight adventure? Our Hunting TOPO Maps & Bundles have clearly marked parks, campsites and recreation sites, so you can easily find the perfect place to base camp for another day in the backcountry. We also mark boat launches, scenic viewpoints, waterfalls, and other natural and manmade features, so you know exactly what to expect from an area even if you have never hunted there before.
