Weather needs a spot

Wind, temperature and the scent cone are a forecast for somewhere. Drop a pin and this fills in for that exact spot, hour by hour.

Idaho deer seasons, 2026

Idaho’s 2026 deer seasons run August 30, 2026 to December 31, 2026, and what is open on a given day depends on the game management unit your stand is in. Drop a pin above and this app reads the game management unit off it, then answers the rest from there — the dates, the legal arms, the bag limits and the shooting hours, transcribed page by page from the Idaho Department of Fish and Game digest. It is a planning aid, not the law: check the digest before you hunt.
