SonsOfSmokey vs Apex Hunt

Sons Of Smokey - SOS app is uniting public land users of all types and volunteers looking to help restore public land for future generations! Use the SOS app to identify and clean up illegal dump locations on public land. Geo tag and photograph abandoned vehicles, dump sites, etc. and update our real-time trash map. Scout out these marked locations for clean up projects and mark them as cleaned up when you're done. How it works: - Download the app and Sign-In with Apple - Open the SOS app while using public lands - If you see dumped debris, select the large "+" button in the middle of the screen, provide a description of what it is and take a few photos - You will see the trash icon appear within the app - If you can clean up a trash location, do so and tap the 'Clean Up' to provide some new photos and describe what you did

Know which cover is worth your boots before you leave the truck. Apex reads the state and federal forest inventory for every stand of public land in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Pennsylvania, and for the national forests of New Hampshire, Maine and West Virginia: what is growing there, how old it is, and how thick the understory is. It scores that as grouse and woodcock habitat, groups the best of it into coverts, ranks them by how far you would walk, and puts them on a map that works with no signal. This is habitat intelligence, not a feed of pins. A score of 78 means the cover is strong right now: the right type, at the right age, with food and escape cover close by. It does not promise a bird. Hunt a 78 ten times and you will move more birds than on a 40. PHEASANT AND BOBWHITE Apex scores public land for pheasant in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Montana, and for bobwhite in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Iowa and Wisconsin, from the crops and grass around each parcel. Each parcel shows where to start, the season for the state you are in, and how much of the corn and soybeans around it has been cut this week.

IMPORTANT Apex is not a legal record of land ownership or public access. Boundaries come from agency data that is generalized and can be wrong at the edges, and ground shown as public may be private, leased or closed. What is posted on the ground controls. You are responsible for knowing where you are and for following all hunting regulations. SUBSCRIPTION Apex Pro is $4.99 per month with a 14-day free trial for new subscribers.
