Three days left. $33K to go.
There is a stretch of North Carolina that 171,000 hunters have been utalizing for over 60 years. 4,000 acres along the Tuckertown Reservoir. 15 miles of shoreline where the only thing built are the memories from the field.
We are at $167K toward our $200K goal. The dollar for dollar match from onX Hunt and MeatEater ends Thursday. After that, your dollar is only a dollar.
The land does not care who shows up. But the people who hunt it will remember who did.

We are closing in. Over $163K raised toward our $200K goal to Save Tuckertown. Less than $37K to go.
4,000 acres of public hunting land along the Tuckertown Reservoir. 15 miles of undeveloped shoreline. 171,000 hunters who have counted on this access for over 60 years. All of it still on the line.
The dollar for dollar match from onX Hunt and MeatEater ends May 15. Every dollar between now and then counts twice.
This is the final push. Show up for public land.

A few of our tracks from DC… and yeah, just a few.
Because these days on Capitol Hill? They’re a little chaotic. Running meeting to meeting, grabbing a quick bite when we can, calling Ubers, and doing it all over again. Not exactly our usual terrain, but important ground to cover.
Public lands policy is shaped by the vote of the public, the pressure of influential voices, and people willing to stand up for what they believe in. That’s why we show up. For the outdoor recreation community. For the protection of our shared lands. For the traditions and freedoms that let us explore them. And for the tools and data that help you plan better, go farther, and get home safe.
We thought it’d be fun to share a glimpse of where our boots (ahem, our loafers) hit the pavement last week. Truth is—we’re more at home navigating mountains, streams, and deserts. But for our lands, we’ll go wherever it takes.

Salt Lake area folks! Now’s your chance to catch Inaccessible on the big screen at the Wasatch Mountain Film Festival.
Ski season may be mostly in the rearview, but this film transcends seasons, regions, and pursuits. Fighting for access to our public lands has no shoulder season, it’s always on.
@wasatchmountainfilm starts tomorrow, snag your tickets on their site today!

Last week, @onx_maps showed up in Washington, D.C. to advocate for our public lands. Not just to talk about it—but to move it forward. Our week included:
✔️ 15+ meetings with Congressional members and staff across both sides of the aisle, public land agency leaders, and partners.
✔️ A screening of our film Inaccessible—with guest speakers @griffpost , @senatormartinheinrich , @repgabevasquez , and @orroundtable who spotlighted the real barriers millions of acres of public land still face, and how it impacts skiers, hunters, and all outdoor enthusiasts.
✔️ A seat at the table with @thetrcp Corporate Council + Public Lands Working Group, where collaboration forges our strength.
✔️ The honor of our CEO and Founder accepting TRCP’s Conservation Leadership Award
We brought data, maps, and real-world insight into the rooms where decisions get made. We advocated for the digitization of land management data– access to data is why you love onX, after all. And we pushed for policies that protect and expand recreational access, because access to our favorite places doesn’t happen by accident. It takes commitment, collaboration, getting loud, and influencing legislation that keeps those bucket-list adventures alive today—and ensures they’re preserved for tomorrow.
We’re grateful for the partners, policymakers, and advocates who do this work alongside us. It’s hard work, but it’s always worth trading our camo and mountain bikes for pressed suits for a few days—our lands deserve it.

This is what 4,000 acres of public land along the Tuckertown Reservoir could look like if we lose it. Bulldozers. Foundation slabs. Rooftops where treestands used to be. Driveways where hunters used to park at dawn.
This is not hypothetical. The land is privately owned and on the market right now. Without action, 15 miles of undeveloped shoreline, 60 years of public hunting access, and the land 171,000 North Carolina hunters depend on every year could be gone for good.
We are just over $100K toward our $200K goal. Through May 15, every dollar donated to the Save Tuckertown Campaign through Three Rivers Land Trust is matched by onX Hunt and MeatEater.
Once it is developed, it is gone. There is no getting it back.

No two camps look the same—and that’s the point.
From deep backcountry pack-ins to hunting camps and last-minute offroad pullovers… it all comes down to finding your spot.
onX helps you get there—and back.
The proposed reorganization of the U.S. Forest Service raises real questions about the future of our public lands.
At onX, we help people explore and protect access to the places that make it possible. Stewardship and the data behind it are core to what we do. Our products rely on accurate landscape data and the geospatial and scientific expertise that power safe, responsible recreation. We’re paying close attention to ensure conservation and recreation remain priorities.
Our Access & Stewardship team is engaged every day—advocating for the resourcing and policies our public lands need. We:
đź’° Push for funding via the Appropriations process to support recreation and geospatial data
⚒️ Back legislation like the Legacy Restoration Fund to address the maintenance backlog
🗺️ Use our maps to show what’s at stake
🏛️ Meet directly with elected officials and agency staff
⛰️ Invest in on-the-ground work through our Adventure Forever Grant program
We’ll continue to show up.
To make your voice heard, call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask Congress to support strong funding and stewardship of our public lands, and uphold the Forest Service’s responsibility to prioritize conservation and recreation.
Windows down. Water moving. Boots on gravel. That first cast hitting just right.
The sounds of summer don’t need much explaining… just a little time outside.
Where are they taking you this year?
Know before you go with onX.
Not every trip needs to be dialed.
Sometimes it’s just about getting out, chasing a feeling, and seeing where the day goes. A new stretch of land, a random turn down a back road, or a spot you’ve had saved for a while but haven’t checked out yet.
Those are usually the days that turn into the best stories.
Having a way to map it out, save locations, and know what’s around you just makes it easier to go for it without overthinking. That’s where onX comes in—so you can spend less time guessing and more time exploring.
@onx_maps founder Eric Siegfried and CEO Laura Orvidas were honored this week by the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership at the 2026 Capital Conservation Awards, one of the country’s leading gatherings celebrating conservation, policy, and the sporting tradition.
Laura and Eric were recognized for nearly a decade of work that has transformed how people access and engage with public lands, from identifying 16.4 million acres of landlocked public land to advancing landmark legislation like the MAPLand and MAPWaters Acts. That commitment to public lands has been part of onX since the very beginning and continues today through a growing access and stewardship program. TRCP also recognized leaders from both sides of the aisle—including Representatives Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA) and Gabe Vasquez (D-NM)—highlighting a shared, bipartisan commitment to protecting access, habitat, and opportunity for hunters and anglers.
Thank you, @thetrcp , for the meaningful and longstanding partnership and for recognizing the impact of our work with this prestigious conservation award. We’re humbled, honored, and fired up to keep going.
A map can show you where to go.
But it can’t tell you what it’ll mean.
That part is yours.
The memories, the lessons, the time spent out there—
that’s what makes a place worth protecting.
This Earth Day, remember:
it’s more than land.
It’s everything that happens on it.
