It’s Up to Us is Montana’s call to protect access, respect landowners, and keep our hunting traditions strong. At the heart of this campaign are two key programs:
Hunter-Landowner Stewardship Program, which helps hunters build respect and trust with landowners, and
Thank a Landowner portal, a simple way to show gratitude to those who share their land.
Every hunt matters, and hunters are encouraged to follow the five core actions below each time they head afield, ensuring access today and for the future. Together with our featured partners across the country, we celebrate community, conservation, and the shared responsibility that makes this all possible.
Be considerate. Ask first, but not at 4 a.m. or on the morning of your hunt.
Pick up trash and leave gates the way you found them.
Know your target and take time to think through the situation. Don't rush.
If you witness a fish and game violation or property vandalism, call 1-800-TIP-MONT or contact your local warden.
Access improves when landowners are respected and hunters are grateful for the access provided.
Promoting responsible hunter behavior and better hunter-landowner relations
At FWP, we understand the importance of strong relationships between hunters and landowners.
To help promote hunter ethics and the importance of investing in hunter/landowner relations, we recently relaunched our Hunter Landowner Stewardship Project online course.
