To build a stronger, more understanding relationship between hunters and the general public, the New Mexico Chapter of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers will once again be working with NMDGF Conservation Officers and Albuquerque Open Space staff to conduct a public outreach day during the 2025 January Bowhunt in the Sandia Ranger District (GMU 8).
Our efforts will be concentrated at trailheads in the Sandia foothills on Saturday, January 4th, where a majority of the hunter/public interaction occurs. We are seeking a group of welcoming BHA members to work alongside NMDGF Officers at key trailheads from 8 am – 12 pm. Volunteers and officers will offer information and answer questions for interested passersby. To participate, please RSVP on this page no later than, January 1 and project lead and NM Treasurer Lance Miller will reach out to you with details (trailhead assignment, directions, parking, Conservation Officer partner).
This outreach event began in 2021 and has been a resounding success in bridging the gap between hunters and non-hunters. Thousands of positive interactions have occurred thanks to the dedication of our NMDGF Conservation Officers and volunteers like you.
