Alaska: BHA Opposes Proposed Ambler Road Hunting and Trapping Closures. Take Action. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game has submitted a proposal to the Alaska Board of Game that would close approximately 420 square miles of public land to hunting and trapping along the proposed 211-mile Ambler Road corridor in Game Management Units 23 and 24. The proposed restrictions would establish a one-mile buffer on either side of the road, despite the fact that the road has not been constructed. The Alaska Chapter of BHA opposes the closures, citing the lack of demonstrated biological or wildlife management need and the loss of established subsistence, recreational, and traditional hunting and trapping opportunities. The Board of Game will consider the proposal during a special web-conference meeting on November 20, 2026. Written public comments are due November 16 at 8:00 a.m. Alaska time. Alaskans are encouraged to weigh in and urge the Board to reject the proposed restrictions.
