🔒 Private to you
Your hunting log, pins, photos and notes are yours alone. We don't share them, sell them or use them for ads, and we don't look through them. Other hunters can never see them.
Without an account, your log stays only on this phone or browser. If you sign in, a copy is saved to your private account so it follows you to other devices, and only your login can open it. Delete an entry or sign out and it goes from your device too. Removing an entry also removes its synced copy.

Rain and snow radar for the past hour. The 2-hour rain forecast above comes from Open-Meteo weather models, so treat the timing as a guide. Green and blue are light rain, yellow and red are heavy.

Dates compiled from MassWildlife's 2026 hunting guide and regulation pages; pheasant, woodcock, squirrel and bear dates are from MassWildlife pages directly. Dates were checked against MassWildlife's 2026 season pages. Seasons marked “confirm” (spring turkey 2027, bobwhite quail) are projected or not fully verified; check them before you head out. Zone-specific details, bag limits, permits and hours are in the official guide. This app is a planning aid, not a legal reference.
