Planning a hunt near Stewart Lake National Wildlife Refuge? The Slope County hunting map is really two maps: state-managed land plus the county's parcel boundaries. In this Slope County guide: where public hunting land is mapped, how to read private parcel lines, and how to ask for permission.
Building your Slope County hunting map

Where the parcel data lives
Begin with the Slope County parcel viewer; it maps every tax parcel around Little Missouri National Grassland and White Lake National Wildlife Refuge. Without an address in hand, follow the nearest road on the aerial until the lines appear, then click inside the one you want, which applies near Amidon as much as anywhere. For property near Amidon, save the parcel ID before closing the panel; every clerk in the county will want it.
Aerial scouting
On the aerial around Marmarth, look for field edges, creek bottoms and timber lines; match each spot to its parcel.

Recorded documents worth pulling
For land near Amidon, the map is an index, not the title: deeds, subdivision plats and easements for parcels in the county are kept by the County Recorder.
