Hi,
In another thread from a few years back, it was mentioned that within Ottawa, hunting is allowed in the Corkery Woodlands and Pinery-Long Swamp.
I've managed to narrow down the general area these places are in (I believe they are in the West Carleton ward), and I'm having a helluva time finding their exact locations.
Can someone direct me to boundary maps for these two areas?
Thanks,
Neil
Here's the maps and regulations for Ottawa, which specifically includes those areas.

Thanks for that. I must be missing something though - I don't find the boundaries of the areas I mentioned. I see the firearm discharge areas, but does the doc you reference actually show the area boundaries?
I was thinking that Corkery Woodlands and Pinery were similar to the Marlborough Forest in that they have fixed and identifiable boundaries. Is that a poor assumption on my part?
Cheers,
Neil

Thanks again. I really appreciate you pointing me to specific resources.
However, I still was not able to find exact boundaries of Corkery Forest and Pinery-Long Swamp Forest. My reason to find the boundaries is that Ottawa bylaw only allows firearm discharge on public lands within 4 specific areas (Carp Hills, Marlborough Forest, Corkery Forest, and Pinery-Long Swamp Forest) - and I don't want to mistakenly hunt on public land that is not specifically exempted from the firearm discharge bylaw.
So I called the city, who connected me with a bylaw officer. As we talked, he was also unable to find the exact boundaries of Corkery Forest and Pinery-Long Swamp Forest.
I'll see what other research I can do, but unless I can find the exact boundaries, I'll have to forget about these two places. If I find any reliable information, I'll update this thread with it.
Cheers,
Neil
