This hunting lease is leased and not available.
132-acre deer and turkey hunting lease in La Crosse County. Trails, trails and more trails. The deer sign was everywhere on this property. I have dozens of more deer trail pics taking during inspection that I did not add to the listing as I felt there were plenty already to represent what I saw. I truly believe the potential for this lease to produce both numbers of deer and quality of bucks is high.
We all want the perfect lease, but what exactly is that. For me, it's the location as being most important and this property feels to be just that. Secondly, it's probably food, water and cover. Again, this property checks those boxes. Lastly is probably access. There is a nice road coming in from the south side and runs along the ag on the southern side. Other than that, there are currently no hill or old logging roads in the timber. Landowner is okay with you creating your own ATV type trails to help get stands in and deer out, but nothing present as of today. There is a plan to have timbered selectively logged but no date or year has yet to be set. Truthfully, I wish I could tell you it would be done sooner than later. Logging would create some roads, and the selective cutting would help create more browse in the timber. Regarding future logging, I was told it would be targeted for winter months when done. Landings for the cut logs would have to be in the ag fields and thus could not happen before those are harvested. Secondly, landowner does not want the compaction to those fields that logging would create should the ground not be completely frozen.
This is a deer and turkey hunting lease. There are no food plots allowed currently as majority of open areas are either in ag already or in CRP. They are open to discussing this should you find an area or two in the timber that might allow for this. No camping allowed at this time either. Use of ATV for hunting related activities is okay when weather and ground conditions permit.
If available and should you want to add to your leased acres, property number 12553 is owned by the same family and borders this lease on its northern side.
