Howdy

I considering making a move to Maine.

I've done a search on the forum in regards to public lands, and was hoping gain more knowledge from responses on this forum.

I've been the Maine state website, and I find very little land designated as public, I was looking for a map like it's marked out west for BLM, State, or Federal public land. I saw maybe one park and was a bit discouraged.

Is most land access for hunting purposes gained through hunt clubs/leases?

I did see several posts regarding land owned by paper mills and the such, is there a central website that lists this land?

I'm not looking for spoon feeding, but more for you guys to point me in the right direction in researching this.

Thanks.

Thanks

Remington, Porter, Kenton....Thank you for all the timely/informative replies.

Kenton, the autorotate screen name has to do with my occupation...helo/airplane pilot for the Army. I love 'em both, just the helo seems to scratch the aviation itch a bit better. And thanks for the infomative link.

Is this link a good reference as well?

Let me know if you've got any able young bodies (less than 31 by selection) that are interested in flying for the Army, I can help them out.

Are there any unique real estate considerations I should think about in regards to purchasing property/real estate in Maine. How about RR easements? Example: Out in the West water/mineral rights, public access easments, water well age/depth can bite the unsuspecting in the buttocks in uninformed.

Thanks in advance. Maine is looking good so far.
