SANTA FE, N.M. — The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is pleased to announce updates to its popular hunting and recreation map system. The BLM, in partnership with the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish, offers free digital maps of big game hunting units and recreational opportunities on public land. These maps provide up-to-date spatial information throughout the state to help users navigate public lands. This unique program allows users to store maps on their mobile devices and access them regardless of cellular coverage.
The free CarryMap application for iOS and Android devices is available at the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The information is also available for download and use on Windows computers. Users who need help downloading or using the app, can visit: https://blm.gov/nm/huntingmaps.
For more information, please contact BLM Geographic Information Systems Specialist Jeremy Zimmerman at jlzimmer@blm.gov or 505-761-8749.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
