Hogsback Wildlife Area and Target Shooting Range
Discover Hogsback Wildlife Area and Target Shooting Range in Lake Mills
Thousands of years ago, the glaciers retreated from North Iowa, leaving bluffs standing over adjacent marshlands. This area contains a mixed oak forest, as well as a nice mixture of woodland wildflowers and native grasses. The timbered areas are especially popular with deer, squirrel, and turkey hunters. Waterfowl hunters also take advantage of the extensive wetlands at the foot of the bluff.
Target Range: Training Certification and testing required. An annual permit for an individual is $30, Family is $35. Annual recertification required.
