Hunt Areas are like folders that hold all the information for your hunt. They contain your area map, and markers, and can be downloaded to be used offline without an internet connection to be used in the field.

Hunt Areas provide additional tools for your hunt. You can use HuntCast and WindCast to identify the best days to hunt, as well as compare which stand within that Hunt Area you should sit at any given time. Hunt Areas can also easily be shared with friends, family, and other hunters to scout and hunt together.
