Vermont Outdoors helps residents safely explore
the outdoors
The Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife has launched the
Vermont Outdoors mobile application, a new tool to help citizens
and visitors explore outdoor recreational opportunities in ways
that meet COVID-19 pandemic safety practices.
Built in partnership with the state’s digital government
services partner, NIC Vermont, the mobile app provides a wide
offering of features, including interactive maps, and enables users
to easily access policy information and guidelines for activities,
such as hunting, trapping, fishing, boating and hiking in
Vermont.
“Vermont Outdoors is an exciting way for us to let Vermonters
and others know how to experience our great wildlife recreation
opportunities safely,” said Louis Porter, Commissioner of the
Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife. “From hunters to anglers
to birdwatchers, those who want to experience Vermont’s wildlife
and wild places can carry an up-to-date guide in their pocket about
how and where to do so. This app is available for different phone
platforms, includes both online and offline information, and even
gives users the ability to help the Department in its wildlife
conservation and recreation mission by letting us know what they
see.”
Since the initial launch prior to the Thanksgiving holiday,
Vermont Outdoors has more than 4,600 downloads. New features are
planned for later this year and next and will introduce even more
useful tools and resources, particularly for activities popular in
the spring and summer seasons. Vermont Outdoors is currently
available for download in both the Google Play Store and Apple App
Store for both Android and iOS devices, respectively.
