Potrero Canyon was recently acquired, and these are the first hunts under DFG ownership. This is a very special opportunity for a really great hunt, and no hunting fee is required.

To apply to the drawing, send a standard size postcard to: California Department of Fish and Game, Attn: Special Dove Hunts, San Jacinto WLA, P.O. Box 1254, Lakeview, CA 92567.

Every postcard must include applicant’s name, mailing address, day and evening phone numbers, and 2006-2007 hunting license number. Indicate which specific hunt you’re applying for. Each hunt date request must be submitted on a separate postcard. Apply only once to each hunt. Multiple applications will result in disqualification. Successful applicants will receive a confirmation letter, other information and directions approximately 10 days prior to the hunt. 

Successful applicants are allowed to bring one guest adult or two youth hunters. All hunters must have a current valid hunting license with an upland game bird stamp where applicable. Hunters must comply with all State Fish and Game regulations and laws and sign a liability waiver (see below).

NOTICE:  The Potrero Canyon site was used formerly for manufacturing and testing of various propulsion systems and defense products. Unexploded munitions and ordnances have been found near the hunt site. For these reasons, the hunt site will be restricted and closely monitored. Hunters must sign a waiver of liability before access to the site is allowed.
