Accessible Hunting Blind at White Mound County Park
We're excited to announce the addition of an accessible hunting blind at White Mound County Park! Nestled behind the park maintenance building near a food plot area sits the blind - complete with two chairs, heat, electricity and lighting. The blind is available to those with a valid Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources permit for people with disabilities to hunt deer and turkey. Click here or give us a call for more details!

The accessible hunting blind won an award! Applications for the 2025 hunting periods are due by March 28th and can be found on our website or by calling our office.
