State Game Lands Number 24, Public hunting grounds in Forest County, United States
State Game Lands Number 24 is a public hunting area in Forest County, Pennsylvania, covering 8,500 acres of forested landscape. The property ranges in elevation from 1,280 to 1,681 feet (390 to 512 meters) and features multiple entry points marked with yellow signs along Routes 66 and 36.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission established these lands to help preserve wildlife populations and natural habitats across the state. This creation was part of a larger effort to protect and manage wild areas for long-term conservation and public outdoor use.
Local hunters and nature watchers come here throughout the year to pursue outdoor activities that are deeply rooted in this region's traditions. The lands reflect how people use wild spaces as places for hunting, exploration, and observing wildlife in their natural settings.
The grounds are accessible via Pennsylvania Route 66 and Route 36, with multiple entry points clearly marked by yellow signs. Visitors should prepare for varied terrain and bring appropriate clothing and footwear for different weather conditions.
Three named waterways - Big Weaver Run, Coon Creek, and Wolf Run - flow through the property and shape its character and ecology. These streams drain into the Allegheny River watershed system and serve as useful landmarks for navigating the terrain.
