Would anyone know what that little area to the south of the White Goat wildrness area is? Is it part of WMU 432?

There is a zone between WMU 426 and the White Goat Wilderness WMU 738 it has no WMU number and would like to find out more if a guy can hunt in there or not. Any help would be appreciated.

I can see what you are typing about.
Sure does seem odd there is no WMU number attached.
I always thought is was part of WMU 426.

The WMU map shows it being the Cline River as a border and south side of this river.
This always has been open in the past.

It includes the watersheds of Landslide Lake, Entry Creek, Shoe Leather Creek
And Waterfalls creek.
These water sheds have always been open in the past.

I think it may be part of WMU 432.

Here is a link;

Look for the 432 number and click on it.
This will bring up a window which will have all the legal land deiscription particulars. I havn't read the description myself yet, but I think your going to find it is 432.

Let us know!

Looks like 426 to me.

Thanks guys for the input, I was thinking the same but wanted another opinion on it. I just don't know for sure
