WIHA Area Rules
1. Obey all Kansas hunting rules and regulations.
• WIHA areas are for hunting purposes only. Other activities are prohibited, without landowner permission.
• Hunting is by foot traffic only. No vehicular traffic is allowed.
• Do not trespass on neighboring property. Hunt only on the
side enrolled in WIHA as designated by signs.
• WIHA tracts are open to hunting either September 1 – May
31 or April 1 – May 31 as indicated in this atlas and on posted boundaries. Do not enter WIHA prior to or after the contract period for any reason. This is a trespass violation.
2. Hunters must be ethical and sportsmanlike.
• Obey the safety zone concept. Allow a buffer around
buildings, homes, and livestock.
• Respect the rights of the landowner and others using the area.
• Do not litter. Take all trash with you.
• Do not enter abandoned or maintained buildings.
• Do not leave game remains in parking areas, roads, or
roadside ditches.
• Treat the land as if it was your own and act responsibly.
• Do not destroy or damage any equipment, machinery, or
other items left on the area.
• Do not start fires on areas.
3. All regulations for KDWPT public lands apply to WIHA.
For a complete listing of regulations, contact a KDWPT
office. The following activities are NOT permitted through
the WIHA program:
Target practice, trapping, commercial or noncommercial dog
training, camping, horseback riding, stocking or releasing of
wildlife, operation of vehicles, discharge of fireworks, fires, littering, drinking cereal malt beverages or alcoholic liquor, and
destructive acts, including digging, destruction, or removal of
signs or vegetation. Although the WIHA program allows access
for hunting only, trapping may occur on WIHA properties by individuals with appropriate landowner permission. Baiting while
hunting or preparing to hunt is illegal. Only two portable
blinds or tree stands are allowed per hunter. Portable blinds
may not be left unattended overnight. Tree stands and
portable blinds must be marked with the owner’s name and
address or KDWPT number. Decoys may not be left unattended overnight. Commercial guide services are prohibited unless
specifically permitted by the department.
4. Additional rules and behavior
• Do not block access to crop fields or pasture land. Farmers
and ranchers may need access to their fields.
• Do not park in the field access sites on neighboring property. Owners may need access to their fields as well.
• Do not enter property with vehicles or park in the field.
• Park only in designated parking areas or along the road.
Take caution to prevent blocking road access.
• Do not open gates or leave gates open.
• Avoid stretching fences when crossing them.
• Allow farmers to pass with farm equipment and machinery.
5. Using the WIHA Atlas
• The maps included in the atlas are to be used for general reference only. Signs will mark the actual WIHA boundary. In
some instances, the boundary may be a creek, river,
hedgerow, crop field, or CRP field where the boundary may
be difficult to map. Use the posted signs as the true boundary.
• The atlas also depicts state and federal areas that may be
open to hunting. Some of these areas have special regulations in effect, and some may have refuge areas that are
closed to hunting. Contact local staff for area-specific information prior to accessing these properties.
• WIHA property can be removed from the program at any
time; in this case, “No Longer Enrolled in WIHA” signs
will be posted. Once these signs are posted, access is prohibited. For an up-to-date list of WIHA that is removed or
added, go the KDWPT website at: ksoutdoors.com/wiha.
On the spring atlas page, there is a link for post-print atlas
changes.
7. WIHA, CRP, crop fields, and livestock
• Some WIHA is comprised of CRP grass. Occasionally,
USDA releases CRP land for emergency haying and grazing. KDWPT has no control whether WIHA property is
hayed or grazed. However, in most circumstances, if WIHA
is hayed or grazed, the cooperator receives a reduced payment. Haying and grazing may actually improve habitat
conditions on the WIHA property in future years.
• Less than 25 percent of WIHA is cropland. This may include
wheat or milo stubble and winter wheat. In some cases, the
WIHA that is enrolled may be in a crop rotation; one year
it may be winter wheat and the next it may be milo stubble.
In other cases, the cropland is accepted to round out the
other acres and make signing and access easier. Some winter wheat is enrolled for goose or crane hunting.
• WIHA contracts are signed months in advance of the hunting season. At the time the contract was signed, the area
had suitable habitat and offered hunting opportunity. If
habitat was negatively impacted by the cooperator, payment reduction would occur. However, if habitat was
negatively impacted by weather conditions, no payment
reduction would take place.
• As part of the agreement, livestock may be present on the
area. The area is still open for hunting, but precautions
should be taken not to harass or injure them.
8. Report violations to the local natural resource officer.
Contact information is listed on inside back cover.
9. Your behavior will decide the future of these areas.
• Kansas landowners have voluntarily enrolled over 1 million acres in the WIHA program.
• These landowners can remove property from the WIHA
program at anytime for any reason.
• KDWPT encourages hunters to be responsible, ethical, safe,
and courteous to ensure the future of WIHA.
Extended weather extremes will impact quality of hunting. The following maps are to be used only as
a general reference. Signs located on properties indicate area boundaries.

Using the Hunting Atlas
On each map, all spring walk-in hunting
areas and public lands, including state- and
federally-owned property, are marked. See
the legend below for color codes used to
identify properties. Not all state- and federally-owned properties are open for public
hunting. Consult local area information
prior to accessing any of these properties.
Access dates for spring WIHA properties
are either Sept 1- May 31 or April 1 - May 31.
Public hunting access to the WIHA properties is limited to the specified access period. Accessing the WIHA properties prior
to or after the access period is prohibited.
Maps are at a scale of 1:277,500 (1 inch
represents 4.38 miles) and were compiled
according to conventional cartographic
standards using the most reliable information available. The Kansas Department of
Wildlife, Parks and Tourism does not guar-
antee freedom from errors or inaccuracies
and disclaims any legal responsibility or
liability for interpretations made from
these maps, or decisions based thereon.
This atlas is a continual work in progress
and any comments, suggestions, or corrections are welcomed. Any such comments
may be submitted to [email protected].

CABINS
Complement any trip with a relaxing stay at a Kansas state park or
wildlife area cabin. One hundred, twenty-one cabins are available
across the state, located at 19 state parks and six wildlife areas and
one at the state fair grounds in Hutchinson.
The cabins offer a wide range of amenities. Deluxe cabins feature
heating and air conditioning, and most have furnished kitchens with
refrigerators, stoves, microwaves and coffee pots; separate bedrooms
and full bathrooms with showers. Basic sleeper cabins are more rustic with fewer amenities. Most cabins can sleep four to six adults
while others can sleep up to 10 adults. About half of the cabins are
ADA accessible. Nightly rental rates vary depending on location,
season, day of the week and available amenities.
Reserve your cabin online at reserve.ksoutdoors.com. You can
review cabin amenities, check prices and availability, and reserve a
cabin up to a year in advance. Online instructions guide you through
the reservation process.

GAME TAGS
•Turkey permits and game tags are valid only in
All individuals, regardless of land ownership
and age, must have in possession a valid spring
turkey permit or game tag to hunt turkeys. In
addition, a valid Kansas hunting license is
required of all residents age 16 through 74
and all nonresidents, except persons hunting on their own land.
No person shall apply for or purchase more than
one spring turkey permit and one game tag or one
combo. Permits and tags obtained through false
representation, misrepresentation, or in excess of
the number authorized shall be invalid.
Spring turkey permits and game tags valid in
