The pessimism is sure running rampant on this site.

Go to this link to see how anti-hunting the forest service actually is:

When it comes to anything having to do with the government, guilty as charged :chuckle:

Yup. Missed it. Still no maps though.

What are you expecting? A map showing the precise locations of animals?   :o

Thanks!
It doesn't mention hunting at all other than target shooting.

Did you miss the "Hunting" tab under the "Recreation" tab in the menu to left of the link that you provided?

Here...........  http://www.fs.usda.gov/activity/mbs/recreation/hunting


Maps are available everywhere. You don't need tghe USFS website to get maps. You can go to REI and use the map machine for great maps. You're not going to get precise directions to prime hunting locations via any website that I know of. If you do, you can bet you won't be alone. This is where the time, fuel, map reading and leg work come in. You'll have to get out and do some scouting. Some will pay off and some will not pay off. That's why they call it "hunting" and not "killing" or "shooting".

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

You'll find the boundaries in the hunting regs.  It's not up to the USFS to publish those, although they can choose to.

Boundaries of what? Boundaries are the GMU's.
You can hunt the entire national forest. Anywhere.
