Pittsburgh — With public access in decline, sportsmen in search of properties to hunt may want to explore some of the dozens of preserves owned and managed by the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy.
The Pittsburgh-based non-profit maintains 47 preserves, most of which are located west of State College and open, free of charge, in all hunting seasons (except Sundays), including archery and firearms. Trapping is prohibited.
