The official regulations have the final word
These dates come from rows a person checked against the Alberta Forestry and Parks's regulations, but bag limits, licences, draws, legal hours and closures are set there and can change during the season. Read them before you hunt.
HuntGrid isn't affiliated with the Alberta Forestry and Parks. A season shows here only once a person has checked it; others may exist.
