Wyoming Map Recommendations

[HighDesertSage]

I'm trying to find a good map of the area NW of Casper for an Antelope hunt I have coming up, but I keep striking out. I already have the chip, but I would like a paper map as well. I have had the mytopo.com GMU maps before, but I really do not like those. The are hard to read, and alot of the roads and names are off. Any recommendations?

Order a BLM map, try here:

Unit 73? How big a map do you need/ do you have access to a plotter?

I bought mine right at the BLM field office by my unit, $4. They also had a copy there that had all of the public accessible roads highlighted so I went ahead and highlighted my copy right there in the field office.

You can also stop into any of the Chambers of Commerce or National Forest service offices in Casper, Douglas, or Glenrock and pick up maps.

Thanks guys. I ordered up 3 of the BLM maps.

Those are nice maps but at that price you'd think they were made out of gold. Besides aren't they the same as the BLM maps with the only difference being the unit boundaries are shown? In 10 minutes I can highlight the boundaries on my $4.00 BLM maps and fill my gas tank up with the money I saved.

If you actually use the maps, you'll get it.

Like greenhorn I prefer the mytopo maps. I like them better than the Blm maps that get ripped in the western wind and wet if it rains. I have not had any problem understanding them. The BLM maps work and are cheap but I like the mytopo. The maps off wy store look ok they are callled game something.

I have well over 100 blm maps. They are like old wore out socks.

I've used both and yea, my topo is a little better but for $30 less on a map I might not use again for 5 years or ever, I'll buy BLM.

If the mytopo maps were $4 dollars and the BLM maps were $30 I'd still buy the latter. Just personal preference I guess.

Where I'm currently hunting in Wy lies on the corner of 4 Blm maps. I have all 4 of them but bought a detailed, up to date(roads), waterproof, tear proof mytopo map.

This is the way it was for the unit I drew back in 2014. Luckily I was able to get a paper map of just my unit from OnX before they discontinued them.
