Public land, private land and the rules in California
Look for Mendocino National Forest, Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge and Sacramento River National Wildlife Refuge on the county map; the private parcels that border public land near Willows get a lot of attention from hunters. California Department of Fish and Wildlife publishes the season dates, license rules and public-land maps that apply around Artois.
Asking a Glenn County landowner for permission
A letter or a daytime visit to an owner near Artois beats a cold call; name the county tract, the game and the dates. Once an owner near Artois agrees, ask about lines, gates and other hunters on the county tract.
Season-to-season scouting
Mid-sized tracts close to Willows with mixed timber and fields are where many Glenn County hunters focus first. Keep a simple list for Glenn County: tract, owner, mailing address, date contacted and answer, and update it each season.
Reading the land around Orland
On the county imagery, look for food, cover and water close together near Willows, then check how many owners share that ground. Liability worries stop some owners near Orland; a signed release or proof of insurance can ease that, and California recreational-use law is worth a read.
