CO announced that right now, all state parks are open BUT all state campgrounds, playgrounds, picnic areas, dispersed camping, and all camping facilities at state parks and state wildlife areas are closed until further notice --refunds are available
Yuma county delayed its Turkey opening until May 2nd ( delayed 3 weeks)
I expect to see more of this everywhere--people didnt think it would affect hunting, but if you cant camp or travel then its going to start affecting it for sure. I expect boating to be restricted on reservoirs too, just hasnt happened yet.
Another issue with other states is they are issuing "stay inside/quarantine" orders for anyone traveling into their areas-- SO that means technically if you are traveling to one of those states, you have to go on your hunt 2 weeks early and stay inside before your hunt date --I can see these states doing a temporary ban on out of state hunters as most wont comply with the rules, some already have
As far as I know, right now you can still camp on federal land/national forest land/BLM land --it is just state land that no longer allows it
