Need a refresher on which grounds are still open to the public during the shutdown. Am I correct that all the ground with the green or orange signs are still open and the only areas closed are the national refugees and the waterfowl production areas.

I couldn't find anything updated but I think National Wildlife Refuges are a no-go and also Army Corps of Engineer land, could be wrong. All state land is okay, that is all I really hunt (green signs) so if you stick with that you are okay.

That's what I thought. I did a little more digging and it looks like the WPAs Are also off limits according to an article I found from a couple years ago when the government shut down for a few weeks.

I'm sure if it does for awhile the feds will block off the parking lots like last time.
